In-cab bottle jack

Hey guys;

Sorry for the stupid question but I noticed on my 2008 F450 DRW the jacking tools are behind the second row seats (I have the King Ranch). My question is, how in the world do you get it out and put it back in? I've tried to figure out how to make the second row buckets lean forward far enough to get some workspace, but maybe in my old age I'm just overlooking something.

With the seats as far forward as they will go, it looks to be pretty tough to work that bottle jack out. I'd like to know how to do it before having to do it in the dark.

Anyone have any pointers or suggestions?

Do you have the quad buckets? If so, there is no easy way. They only lean forward a little bit and there is nothing you can do about it.

If you have the 60/40 rear bench it should be a piece of cake to access so I am assuming your KR has the quads.

I used the jack and tools one time in my F-350 KR with 60/40 rear seats. Best advice I can offer is patience. Anytime you can get 13 pieces in a dozen container, patience is golden, but it can be done.

My truck is 4 x 4. Measure the bottle jack, measure the front air deflector, measure the thickness of your tires. Then read the directions and see if you can put that rubic cube together. I figured it out, but not according to the direction.
