Need pictures of proper Jack storage on '74 K20. Can't figure it out.

I found a couple of Jack Parts behind the seat on my 74 Cheyenne.

The Jack Handle is mounted to the passenger side inner fender, but I'm not sure how to mount the Jack and the longer handle. I can sort of see in the jack instruction pictures online but not good enough to see exactly how it goes.

Can anyone post a couple pics of the proper setup in their cars?

Also, I think you need some sort of "C" shaped bracket to hold the jack down against ther fenderwell. This part I can't find anywhere (which is probably why the P.O. put the stuff behind the seat). Does anyone reproduce that bracket?

Also, are their any other parts I need?

Thanks!

It should all mount there on that fender, rod and jack.

Here's the best pic I had lying around, I hope this helps. It is indeed a C-shaped-ish bracket that holds the jack and the rod, held down by a wing nut.

Thanks for the pic - my setup doesn't look like that however.

Mine has the brackets mounted to the inner fender. There is also some sort of brace that's riveted to the fenderwell.

Thanks though!

Anyone else?

I don't have a better picture, but you can somewhat see the jack set up in this engine pic from my 73. I'll try to get a better picture uploaded if you still need it.

Yes that's looks like what I have. I'm still not sure how that long rod that folds in half fits exactly. If you could take a couple more it would be SUPER helpful but that's basically it...

Also - does anyone reproduce that "C" bracket for the jack? I don't have that...

I'll try to snap a few pictures tommorow. I havent seen any repro's so Im not sure if anyone makes them or not. Its probably going to be one of those items your going to have to find in a junkyard or on ebay.

Now, if anyone has one of those jack brackets I'll be in good shape!
