Jack Handle Location?
Hi everyone,

First post and proud new owner of a 2012 'farmer spec' 90 - thrilled to bits! Wanted to get as young a one and as low mileage as I could afford, with a plan to keeping it for a very long time.

I was hunting about in the under-seat boxes and I could find a single chock, a bottle jack and wheel brace, but could not find a handle for the jack?

In my old Series 3 it was down behind the front seats - am I being a spud or is it just missing?

Cheers,

Fish.

Hi Fish13!
If you have a bottle jack, then I'd expect the handle to be in the seat box alongside it.
I haven't looked at it for a while, but it breaks down into two or three short sections.
My old 90 had the jack attached to the bulkhead, but that was the 'tall' screw jack, and wheel brace + ratchet handle were all in the same bag.
Perhaps its got lost?
If so, the dealer should supply a replacement, as mine did. '57 Defender 110 XS Station Wagon 2.4tdci

Some came with 3 piece handle and some came with a 2 piece handle, the 3 piece fitted into tool clips in the seat box, the 2 piece was fitted into tool clips on the bulkhead behind the seats. Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place,
so it doesn't take much to Censored us off.

Excellent, thanks guys, looks like mine is missing. Defender is a '12 plate so not new from dealer, was just checking in case it had a new location I wasn't aware of!

I have only the one chock too, so I guess the other has also gone walkabout.

Many thanks for your replies.

Cheers,

Fish.

There was only one wheel chock with mine - There is a bolt to secure it in the battery compartment under the passenger seat.
Would a 'farming spec' Defender have locking wheel nuts? - That might not be missing. '57 Defender 110 XS Station Wagon 2.4tdci

Ah, ok, yep, I've just got the one wheel chock. No, mine has steel wheels so no locking wheel nuts.

Looks like I'm just missing the folding handle.

Cheers,

Fish.

On my "farming spec" 110 the 3-piece-handle was shoved between the battery and the side of the box. Had to unbolt the battery to get at it. Have a look there.

Also only one chock and a bottle jack.

Many thanks Rakthi, will have another rake about before admitting defeat!

Cheers,
