[Tigers] Spare tire hold down and Jack and Jack handle locations and hole by battery.

[wseay]

Joel,

Attached is a photo of the trunk layout for B382001570.  There is a second large clip that retains the lower end of the jack that isn’t shown.  The original clips come with a plastic coating that keeps from scratching the jack components.  This coating will have flaked off of most clips by now.  You can renew the coating by dipping your clips in Plasti Dip.  Plasti dip is available from eBay and other sources.  Spare hold down is via the large captive nut as shown.  Don’t know what the holes you refer to are for, but neither is for the battery vent tube.  It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a Tiger with a correct vent tube, but if you had one it would exit through a hole in the bottom of the (Alpine) tire well.

Should the spare tire hold down be using the large captive nut in trunk floor or the rubberized strap with the 3 'H" shaped brackets?

Does anyone have a picture of their trunk with the correct location of the jack with 2 or 3 hooks and is there a rubber pieces or something that hold the protruding part of the jack to the floor so it does not scratch or rattle?

Also location and number of clips 2? of jack handle?

There is a hole by the battery, see picture, and one behind battery on rear shelf - one was for battery fumes but not sure about the other one.

Thanks again for bearing with me but going great guns to try and finish car in the next 2 months.

Joel Martin
