Do I even have a jack in my Marauder?

I just had my snow tires put on, at a garage, and they gave me the key to take the lug nuts off. I was going to put it with the Tire Iron but I couldn't find it. Then I noticed I didn't really have ajack either. Unless it is hidden somewhere.

Where would it be? It is not with the spare.

Try the passenger side rear fender well floor, behind the pull away felt covering, in the trunk.

I can't reach it right now. My garage is 18 feet long. I don't want to open the door, it is cold outside.

Suggest you ask Santa for an owners manual for Christmas, a good read.:D

The previous owner's stash might be in there with the jack... of course the label which shows how to stow the jack and spare tire must be hidden with the owner's manual...Did you ask your "garage" if they hand torqued the lug nuts to prevent warpage of the rear rotors.. The values are found in your manual... Most Panthers are safe at 100 ft lbs for steelies...

Time to check under the mini spare I guess.

It's in kind of a drawstring bag, same colour as the carpet. Hides really well.

Yes it should be with/near the spare, in a bag/satchel

Still haven't found it. I will have to pull the spare as I just can't see behind it.

It sure doesn't look like it is underneath it.

Drawstring bag? Must be a Canidian thing, my jack is in a velcro bag same color as the carpet.

Could be. Mine doesn't have velcro (that I remember). It was in a bag same colour as the carpet, tied with a string, as I recall.

Hmmm... Mine has two Velcro straps. Looks like we've found another difference between the A's and the B's. :D

mine has 2 velcro straps... 300A

oh and mine is located on the floor of my trunk. it hasnt jumped back behind the full size spare where it belongs. although it is odd that i originally found mine under the carpet... old owner upgraded speakers and threw it under the carpet.

I really need to go and have a good look. I still havn't found it.

If I need a new jack what would you recommend?

I moved mine from behind the spare to behind the felt on the passenger side fender well in the trunk. jack and tool kit are zip tied to the support. i'm creative.
