bottle jacks ?

[fogman]

just checked to see if ive got a jack in my recently brought fronty & although ive got the jack there appears to be a lack of handle for it, im not sure if its the original jack but i think it probably is, & i dont have a wheel brace either, so can anyone tell me if a jack & brace from an a series would be ok for use on a b series ? ive noticed a member has an a series 1 for sale but i really need to know if its going to be any use to me before making contact with him

cheers gary.

Have you looked under the back seats.
This is where the wheel brace and handle for the jack are kept
