Overview
In this comprehensive guide, we aim to provide a detailed walkthrough of how to access and use the car jack handle and lug wrench bar included with your Ford Transit vehicle. These tools, designed with convenience and ease of use in mind, are especially handy during those unforeseen flat tire situations. The Ford Transit, as standard, incorporate these tools into the core design, ensuring they are always at your fingertips when you need them the most.
The Features of the Jack Handle and Lug Wrench
The Ford Transit's jack and lug wrench are not only easily accessible but are straightforward to use due to its simplified assembly design. Nestled comfortably under the passenger seat, the jack can be effortlessly accessed by simply sliding the seat forward. This can be done using either the power control button located on the side of the seat that is closest to the door, or by using the manual seat adjust bar located at the front of the seat.
Likewise, the jack handle and the lug wrench are conveniently located in a compartment on the side of the passenger seat base, near the step well. The tools are easily retrieved by pulling on the two slots. The jack handle comprises six separate pieces that interconnect to form a stable and durable handle. Assembling the handle is a breeze - the male end of each piece, fitted with a locking button, fits securely into the tube of the next piece, clicking into place. The lug wrench, located somewhat deeper in the storage compartment, perhaps requires a slight twist for ease of removal.
Servicing Your Ford Transit
Changing a flat tire on your Ford Transit begins by adequately positioning the head of the jack under specific locations based on whether you are replacing a front or rear tire. For front tires, place the head of the jack under the protrusions at the rear of the front subframe. When working on the rear tires, the jack should be placed under the rear axle. The Ford Transit service system is designed to make this process as simple as possible.
