Using swing away tire carrier to carry hi lift and shovel

[michibronc]

I've purchased an inside spare carrier that I'm putting on my '96. My hopes are to use the swing away to carry a hi lift and shovel when I go wheeling. It wouldn't be any heavier than the tire was so I don't think it would be a prob.

Anyone done this or seen something similar? Seen any write ups on how to build the clamps to hold the shovel and jack on?

Here's something that hi lift sells - I just need to fasten it to the swing away. Then rig something up to attach a shovel too.

All I plan to put on is a hi lift and a shovel. Shouldn't be much more combined wt than the tire that came on it if at all more.

We have two 60" hi-lift jacks in our shop they are heavy... any expensive ours were $91 new my dad left it to me to find a couple... is say 30-40lbs ours are the big ones though i think there like a 40" one somewere around the shop which is lighter...

the shovel shouldnt be any more then 5lbs
