I don't have one of those boxes, but I am guessing the problem is that
the leads are too short? If so, perhaps they would be long enough to
attach to the battery, then lower the hood down so its just resting on
the latch, and set the booster on top of the hood? Either that, or if
you've got a set of jumper cables in the truck, set the booster on the
ground and use the jumper cables to connect it to the battery. If the
booster has a carrying handle, you may be able to use a bungee cord
or an S hook or something to hang it outside the truck, in front of
the grill or outside the fender.
