: 04 Armada jack location???

We bought this ride off of ebay a few months ago and have absolutely loved it. We ran into a problem the other day that left us between a rock and a hard spot. We got a flat on the interstate and when we went to break out the jack and the rest of the stuff required to change out the flat for the spare and realized we didn't have all the equipment. I found the jack storage compartment on the left side of the rear, but no lug wrench or handle to crank up the jack/let down the spare. Also, the previous owner had custom 22's mounted and locking lugs installed. So even if we had the wrench and the jack handle, no way to get that last locking lug nut off. Any idea on where to get the special wrench for that and any ideas on the location of the lug wrench and handle? Are they stored with the jack, or are they located somewhere else.

Thanks for the help

They are in a black "bag" in the under floor storage compartment in the rear cargo area.

Ya, we looked under there. The velcro straps are there to secure the black bag, but no black bag. Any ideas on where to get one. I assume the dealer, but man I hate getting bent over!

If you bought the car from a dealer, it's Law that they provide it with the vehicle. Dealer is all I know of.

Or you can try your nearest Junk Yard (Auto salavge) to see if they have a recked Armada. I bought a small hydraulic bottle jack, at Wal-Mart - as a back-up, it fits nicely in the left rear compartment next to where the stock jack resides - since that stock jack is so flimsey. Also don't forget to throw in a few pieces of wood as spacers and as wedges to Chock the tires, to keep the beast from creeping.
