I'd like to see your mount design. I already have some ideas, but I also tend to overbuild or over-engineer stuff too like it has to survive re-entry from orbit.I carry a Power Built in one of my Rigs (whatever My wife is wheeling on the trip, and shortened farm jack (48in with the bar cut down to 37", so it fits inside the back with a bolt to the rollbar) in the Bronco.
Farm Jacks are dangerous tools, I seldom use one for lifting a vehicle, but the versatility for other uses in recovery is pretty undeniable. (Breaking beads on tires, short winch jobs, Lift and push to move a vehicle).
The Power Built bottle/jack stand linked several times above is by far my favorite tool for lifting a vehicle though, I store the handle, cradle, and cradle pin separately in the vehicle tool box, and secure the base/bottle with a simple l-bracket and screw knob from a hardware store.
Thanks @popo_patty for the dims given on the base. Helps with planning out the eventual mount and knowing how much space it is going to take up vertically as well.
