1st Gen jack stowage

[PetesPonies]

Anyone have a pic of a factory jack stowed correctly behind the seat, standard cab?

I'll try to remember to snap a pic. My 87 standard cab 302 swap truck still has all of the original equipment fastened behind the seat.

Mine is unstowed at the moment. The wrench clips in with the socket to ps aimed to the back. Jack clips in its clip, triangular plate with thumbscrew holds down both the wrench and in clipped side of jack. I think it is in the manual too.

IN have a manual ordered. I'm not sure what pieces I'm missing, so need to see a pic. Thanks

Dug up a pic in photobucket from when I first got mine put together. I have since tracked down a better looking hold down plate.

Thank you. That hold down plate is what I am missing. I have the screw. Do you still have that hold down plate ?

I was a little late to the game. Sorry.

On my next trip to the junkyard, I'll grab one for ya if I can locate one. My favorite yard has about a dozen 1st gens.

Somewhere in the barn...

Checked under the seat?

Thanks guys. My truck is apart, getting a transformation. The interior was gutted, it's not there.

 

[PetesPonies]

I guess no one found an extra piece ??

I haven't been back to the salvage yard yet. I'll try to remember it the next time I go, but it may be a while. Probably next spring unless I think of something else to modify in the meantime. It's about a 30 mile drive, one way.

I am working on a beam swap at the moment, so ya never know.
