Hey there… any supporting vendors in the process of making a mounting plate for the new Badlands jack? Or does anyone know of a company that is coming out with one?

Bump. I’m also curious about this.

More so if one of the mounting plates from Pro Eagle would just work.

These HF Badlands Off-road jacks are going to sell like hotcakes - someone KHC or JDS could probably benefit from making a mounting plate solution for them.

I hope they are better than previous HF stuff that has been known to fail, haven't used HF tools in a while and it is half of what a pro eagle is but I wouldn't be surprised if they stole ProEagle designs that were not trademarked and just went with it.

apparently some really good reviews on the HF jack, may consider getting one myself now as I don't have the Proeagle and it being half as much is a huge factor.

Don’t waste your $$$ on HF jacks- I learned my lesson after having TWO of their low profile 3 ton jacks fail on me, i used for doing maintenance on my vette. It’s just started seeping hydraulic fluid & eventually got locked up & weren’t abused or anything.

If I were buying from an off the shelf store I’d look @ Napa first but I’m convinced you get what you pay for w/ many tools & a vehicle jack is not the type of thing you’d want to skimp on IMO

I think they vary from jack to jack. ALL of our snap on jacks failed pretty quick. And with the rebuild kit costing double the Daytona 3 ton jack from HF we bought a couple Daytona's. Not a single problem in the last 3-4 years. But all of our aluminum HF jacks failed at about the same rate of the Snap On models. So I haven't written this one off yet.
