I scored new parts today at a swap meet to install the bumper jack in my Challenger. Does anyone have a pic I can use for an installation reference to install on my 70 Challenger Vert? The large piece that attaches to the wheelhouse has me scratching my head.

The engineering drawing shows the hook sandwiched between the tire and the floor in the upper right view for w/space saver tire.

That's for (model 27) Convertible model only with space saver spare

Hardtop is Model 23, the print shows all variations/combinations of hardtop/vert, basic spare, SS spare

If I'm reading it right, the drawing shows the hook going between the trunk floor and space saver for all E convertibles and Barracuda hard tops, and above space saver on the stud for Challenger hardtops.
On my Challenger convertible the hook typically works its way loose when I drive, and then I hear the space saver and base rattling around in the trunk every time I hit a bump in the road. Either I'm doing something wrong placing the hook, or it's a poorly thought out way to place the components, or both!
