I am trying to put together pieces of this puzzle. I have the original screw jack and handle for this truck. The jack is stored in the corner of the cockpit behind the driver using a spring type strap device. Where does the folded jack handle go? (And not rattle!) Thanks!

I think all that junk was under the seat on the floor.

Looks like the jack handle slips under the gas tank strap? I can't imagine that is correct. My truck also has the spring retainer in the drivers side rear cab corner.

Thank you all! The gas tank strap may the correct answer. At least from the diagram. But I am thinking that Otto has the practical solution. Wrap it rattle-free and stow it under the seat. And keep the cell phone charged and call AAA. Thanks again!
