xjtrailrider - what's in the tuperware? Since you are a mechanic by trade, it might be helpful if you shared what you carry (list or more pics). I know I'd appreciate knowing.
As far as the jack goes - I once had an amplifier fastened to the back of seat. I ended up taking it out because whenever I wanted to put my seat down to put something larger in cargo area I had to worry about that darn amp. Now, one wouldn't have to worry about hurting a jack, but it might be in the way at times. And since it's not easy to move, it could become a nuisance. I like trialrider's philosophy "Everything in the back is meant to be able to take it out fast."
I carry all of this with me each run. The tool bag, drain pan, and gear bag sit in the rear floor board on the pass side and are straped down. Everything else is in the rear.
