Missing a part of my jack

Had the belts seperate on my left rear tire yesterday, so I went to put the spare one so I can drive the truck around some, and to the tire shop.

Found out I am missing one of the rods that came with the OEM jack. I have the tire iron that turns into a crank, and I have the first rod. I am missing the second rod that slots into the jack and also into the the fitting that lowers the spare tire.

Anyone know where I can get the second rod? Dealership I amagine would have it, just wondering if there is another source.

On mine the tire iron is double duty and it lowers the tire as well as acts as a jack handle.

My iron can fit the slot in the jack, but has no provision for the lowering the spare. The slot to crank the spare looks like a big hex key.

Your best bet is gonna be e-bay/craigslist or a Junk yard.

i use a straight prybar. If I cant turn it, I'll stick an adjustable wrench on the sq. bar of the prybar and turn it down with that, and keep a bottle jack in my toolbox instead of the stock one

Wrecking yard I'll wager for the extension arm. Any Dodge truck/van should be the one.

This guy parts out a lot of Dodge/Cummins trucks, and plain old Dodge trucks on ebay. I've bought a few things from him, and also talked to him in person, and he's OK. This auction is for a Sport Headlight, but he generally has hundreds items listed at any one time. He runs a salvage yard in Northern Arkansas.
