I just purchased a jack and jack handle for my 944. How is it stored in the spare tire compartment?
Thanks |

A factory jack?
IIRC, it mounts on the shelf between the spare and the rear of the car.

Thanks for the reply. It is a factory jack and handle. There are two metal pieces that stick out in the wheel well, does the jack fit over the metal pieces?
Thanks |

It kinda slides between them. IIRC, you have to get the jack height just to fit.

Thanks, I'll work on adjusting the jack. Where does the jack handle fit?
Thanks again. AD9440 |

In the tool kit, IIRC.

you slide the jack onto the metal pieces, then rotate the 'screw' to squeeze the jack onto them.
the handle clips onto the wheel well, behind the spare tire. take a look, it will be obvious.
