Picture of the Jack with the spare?

Anybody have a photo of how the jack and spare are all supposed to fit in the back?

Since i used mine last week, and i have a loner tire on it now, i can't figure out how the jack is all supposed to lock together. I remember the bar for the side was locked into the jack somehow, and that is about it.

I took it all out in anger and just don't remember. I don't really want rattles either

any help?

Dont have a picture right now but the bar has two "hooks" and there are two holes in the jack that they go into and then jack it up a little till the bar stays in place. Then the jack goes down with the thread bar going up throught the middle and then the spare on top, replace cover and screw down. Ill try and get a pic if no one else does in awhile, im at work now but will be going to rinse off the bugs in just a few.

thanks, if you can take a shopic that would be fantastic. I have a general idea but for some reason just can't make it fit together.

Good info to have.

I can see how this could get confusing. Anyone have a clue what the grey air tube by the battery is?

a pretty awesome first post. THANK YOU

I tried mine like that but it still didn't seem right. I am going to go down and do it right now. I guess i remembered correctly...

Yours doesn't look like it has blue grease on it though? My entire center thread bar is completely covered with a thick layer of blue grease. Which confused me since it's going to get on the center upright threaded area. oh well.

finally got it. I was trying to catch the little hook part on the notch on the inside part of the bar, and not in the hole in the center of the bar. problem solved.
