Hey guys,
Lifted the boot floor the other day and notice that my jack lever...
or whatever you call the thing u wind the jack up with. anyways, its
is loose. The jack in still just behind the bumper and fixed to something so thats ok but don’t know where to put the lever....????

Help... rattling was annoying me so its now inside the car until I can figure out where it goes!

cheers,

You can turn the lever by hand, which in turn expands the jack so that it won't move around - that'll stop it rattling.

I think it goes to the Black Rubber bag that holds all your other car tools...

just put this lever on the side of the drivers seat in case you need to use it when being car jacked OR if you want to road rage other Toyota Camry drivers hehehe

HAHHAHA!!! ACE888.. you are so violent..
As a matter of fact... I rather get a baseball bat.. :thumbsup:

Speaking of the jack and the level.. Hmmm.. honestly, I haven't open up my boot to have a look what's there.. might do it this weekend.. just in case I need to use it.

hehe not violent ahcash.... just thinking ahead for bad situations, and even if police did a random inspection of your car and saw wheel bolt tool, just that is needed for the car wheel... but seeing baseball bat? might get into trouble there

ok guys, this might sound stupid but i have just realised i have no black bag of tools in my boot. Gf tells me that it was there at some stage but is not now!
no idea wtf happened to it but need one in case i get a flat.
Might try to call honda parts tom, but i get a feeling that its going to cost an arm and a leg.
any idea where i can get a cheap one of these... or a used one from a 2nd hand honda parts place in syd?

just got of the phone with syd honda dealer... bag of goodies is going to set me back $104!!!

dont really wanna spend that much on a car jack so might try to get one 2nd hand from Honda wreckers... any suggestions of places in syd.

if no luck there, might have to go to auto parts place and buy one there as MRFIt has suggested
