Waiste of money. Head over to city mill and pick up some proof chain and
some chain connectors, anchor shackles.

Horizontally on the bulkhead behind the seats. Do you have a couple of
threaded holes behind each seat? Mine does, not sure if it's part of the
shoulder seat belt or what. Anyway, threaded rod gets screwed into these
holes. Place about a nut and washer about an inch and 1/2 sover this. Acts
as a spacer. Then the Jack. Then one large fender washer, then wingnut. A
small bungie cord wraped around the body and handle cures the rattles. Or
you could drill a couple of holes through the bulkhead and push the bolts
from front to rear into the load bed. Secure with a nut. and then follow
above procedure.

If doing the two bolts method, cut a couple of holes in the cover in the
appropriate spots. Place the jack in the bag, and then onto the bolt holes.
Take a look at my roll cage and let me know if you want one. If so I could
add a mount point to the cage possibly.
