Greetings To The FMJ World!
Ever since I acquired Darth Car his spare tire has been laying in the trunk well. That does not leave a lot of trunk space since it is a full size spare; and I do not have one of those old style fiber board tire covers to give a more solid trunk floor. My problem was that the PO lost the tire connection screw rod that goes from the kotter key, and pin, up through the tire, through the scissor jack, and into the wing nut. Now I have the kotter key, and pin. I even have the wing nut, so I needed a rod. Enter my creative turn-buckle solution. It is adjustable, and fits the bill.
