I bought a jack from a wagon for my SX/4 and it is the long ratcheting jack. I seem to recall from the fiberboard cover for the spare tire in my SX/4 a picture of how it is stored that shows a scissors jack. I haven't seen the fiberboard cover for the spare tire in some time, am I remembering this right? It doesn't seem that the wagon jack will store properly in the back of my SX/4 under the space saver spare.
Pretty sure my SX/4 came with the longer bumper jack. If I recall it wedges underneath and to the left of the spare in the hatch.
Prafe is correct; all Eagles came with a bumper jack, while all the other AMC models of this era came with a scissor jack. Reason was that the Eagle frame was too high up off the ground for the other models' scissor jack to work (jack would be fully-extended before the tire got off the ground). If you have a scissor jack in your Eagle, it was probably from a Spirit!
Thanks guys. Now I just have to figure out how to place everything to bolt down and store
I have the original tire cover with those instructions if you need a photo.

Thanks Prafeston!
No problem Priya!
I just took some pics of my jack installed in the back of my SX/4. I am missing the wing nut that holds the hook piece to the part that slides up and down the post.
