An improved jack for a ground vehicle including a lever operated jacking mechanism substantially encompassing an elongated rack means, a tubular member affixed at one of its ends to said jacking mechanism and telescopically receiving one end of said rack means therein, ground engaging means pivotally secured to the opposite end of the rack means and bracket means including a channel portion receiving therein the end of said tubular member opposite the jacking mechanism. The improvement comprises means for securing the jack in a generally horizontal storage position comprising an elongated rigid rod, means disposed on the jack at a location spaced apart from the bracket means and defining a first opening for receiving one end of the securing rod and non-pivotal means associated with the bracket means and defining a second opening for receiving the opposite end of the securing rod. The second opening is of a generally tubular geometry with the longitudinal axis being fixed in a generally horizontal orientation when the jack is in its storage position.
