I want to mount my Hi-LIft jack somewhere on my Max IV. I have a roll bar and I was thinking of mounting it on one of the rear verticles. Any ideas? Pics would be great.

Same as above for double gun rack

I put a double gun rack horizontally on the top tube of the rear cargo carrier of my Max II. I thought about running it vertically up the roll bar, but couldn't find appropriately sized mounts. I use the gun rack to carry a canoe paddle sometimes as well, "just in case."

I'm curious about the Hi-Lift. Do you have some type of bumper or brush guard on your Max IV? I ask, because I can't see how a Hi-Lift would work on the small plastic lip of a Max body otherwise.

If a person doesn't have a winch the high lift can be used as one. On the amphibious atv I see this as a good reason to have one, and to lift up other vehicles. A person can also use the high lift on the amphibious atv by lifting from the wheels. This would be to lift one side to repair a chain or something like that.

Also on the sides where the roll bar attaches the metal overhangs the body making a good jacking place. I can lift an entire side of the machine that way.
