Wheel Brace And Jack (Car Tool Kit)

They are usually stored under the boot floor near the spare wheel. Cars with a repair kit instead of a spare often have no jack. A locking wheel nut key may be stored with them. Loosen the wheel bolts slightly before lifting the car, then tighten them fully once it is back on the ground.

The jack lifts the car at its jacking points; the brace loosens and tightens the wheel bolts.

Use the jack only on firm, level ground and never go under a car on a jack. Check the tools are present before a long trip.
