Title: how to fit jack and handle in storage space on an FD
Post by: leeroy_25 on September 17, 2016, 12:03:54 AM
Okay.. Yes I forgot.. I stripped my boot out circa 2 years ago and just putting it all back! Pretty sure I have the jack figured out but cannot see how to fit the handle. Also looks like I may be missing something as there is a stud sticking up with nothing to go on it?!
Please can someone post some pics of inside the storage area for the jack with the various bits in place. Blowed if I can find one online!
Thank you
Lee

Thanks for that.. helps a lot.. Is what I though. The handle does not seem to fit that well though?! What is the blue metal Under the end of the jack there. That is what I am missing from mine. That and the wing nut for it.

Cheers

Its a wheel chock thingy....and that helps the handle stay in place...the handles in a clip and wedged by the wheel chock.

Ohh... I see.. I got it all in.. Seems the handle clips in better the other way around. There is a clip down in the bottom of the well it also hooks into.

Cheers

I found you had to angle it downwards and clip the bottom end in first then drop it down into the upper clip.
