Jacking from the brush guard??
I only have one small hydraulic jack but have access to a 48" farm (tractor) jack.
Doesn't seem like the bolts holding the roof supports and brushguard on will be strong enough to handle jacking from the middle of the brush guard but wanted to ask the experts. |

I'm no expert, but I'd say there's better than a 50% chance you'll bend something.

I would not do it LL, I have seen too many bent, go buy a floor jack from Harbor freight, I think they are around $30.00 or so.

I suspect the bolts will survive, but the bar will bend.

A floor jack is under Mrs. Gresham's as we speak. Got it in a set with 2 jackstands I think for $49. It's not man enough for my 2500 HD but for the cart it's great.
