Had a need to use the jack that came with the car

Graah - the wheel nut remover that serves as a handle for the jack is useless, it stripped the hole that goes over the flattened end of the 10mm rod well before the wheel was off the ground. So out came my trusty 6" adjustable spanner - The weight saving

10mm rod started to twist and bend - it would have troble knocking the skin off of a rice pudding!!! Lucky I had a 22mm socket and a big hammer (to knock the socket onto the jack) and a bar to turn the socket. Got me out of trouble - in the middle of nowhere with no phone reception. Hope this note saves you some agro one day
