I'm seeing a few bolts, so I'm confused. Is it where the z-brace bolts to the K-member in the front? I'm uneducated on what a rack bolt is apparently.

Yes, if you follow that bolt up you’ll see it also mounts the rack. I inverted mine so the nut is on the top. That’s where my jack goes.

I was thinking maybe you meant steering rack but I thought jacking on the steering box area in general might be.... frowned upon?

Someone is always frowning on something....meanwhile I have been doing this for about 5 or 6 years with no issue. As soon as there is a problem I’ll be back to report.
