Mr. Squirrel, If the jack needs protection, just do what you would do with anything else up there that needs protection -- stuff it in a bag.  So far as securing it in place, nothing beats old fashioned line, like sailor's use.  I tie everything in place that I put up there, with poly lines.  Nice tie down points in the luggage rack.  mcneely
