I’ll get that to you. But, I looked with the jack real quick and I think it will not work, but man it was close. The foot of the jack will be two thick on one axis. I’ll try anyway tomorrow. It is ruffly 24 inch long and the oval shape is about 2 inches by 3.5 inches. So if not the jack I may still play with it as a storage area.
