Default Dumb question

I had a flat couple months ago and threw on the spare. Now that the snow cleared up and bought new tires all around. I'm trying to figure out how to put the jack back in the spare tire and up in the spare well. Is there a how-to video about this? It took me a solid 15 mins to get the jack off the spare tire, there has to be an easier way!

Your spare was still good?

^^^^^That was what I thought at first as well hahaha. I think I still have the spare from my old 84 and my old 94 that I removed and put in the basement Neither was any good.

I think the jack sat inside of the spare if I remember correctly and it and the tools were in a bag in my 84. I don't remember how they fastened to the spare though, I'm sorry.

But yeah, I ran into a flat once on my 94 and it barely made it home on the spare:
