If you're running the Harbor Freight Badland 3-Ton Off-Road Jack, you already know why it's become the go-to upgrade over a factory scissor jack — it lifts up to 6,000 lbs and actually works on sand, gravel, and uneven ground. What most owners find out the hard way is that a 70+ lb jack with nowhere secure to live becomes its own problem: sliding around your bed, chewing up your liner, or turning into a projectile if things get rough.
That's what our Badland 3-Ton Off-Road Jack Mount is built to fix.
What it is
This mount is laser cut in-house from 1/8" mild steel — not a generic universal bracket, but a mount shaped specifically around the Badland 3-Ton's footprint. It bolts to any flat surface, so it works whether you're mounting it in a truck bed, on a trailer, or against a cage — you're not locked into one vehicle platform. Each mount ships with a retaining pin and linchpin, and the jack handle stores securely underneath, so nothing rattles loose and nothing you need is buried somewhere else.
You get a choice of finish: raw steel, which ships in 1-2 days, or flat black powder coat, which takes 1-2 weeks but holds up better if it's going to live outside. At $219.98, it's priced for something you're going to trust in a recovery situation, not a garage shelf.
Why mounting beats storing it loose
- It stops moving. No more re-securing a 70-lb jack every time you hit washboard or a rock section.
- It stops damaging your bed. Loose steel bouncing around a spray liner or tailgate adds up over a season of trail use.
- It's actually accessible when you need it. In a real recovery situation — rig tilted, path blocked — you want to grab the jack, not excavate it from under your gear.
Installation notes
Because it mounts to "any flat surface" rather than a specific factory bed pattern, take a minute before drilling to plan orientation — vertical against a headache rack or cage rail, or horizontal flat in the bed — based on what clearance you actually have. The included pin and linchpin handle retention once it's bolted down; the anti-rattle straps are what take up the last bit of play so nothing works itself loose over a few hundred miles of washboard.
Bottom line
If you're already carrying the Badland 3-Ton, this is the difference between a jack that's ready when you need it and 70 lbs of loose steel finding the weakest point in your rig. Shop the Badland 3-Ton Jack Mount — $219.98 →
