Anyone help me out with a pic of their trunk please? Particularly how the jack mounts in there? Mine was a jumbled mess when I got it, and I know it has to be more orderly, but can't visualize where the jack rests. Just sanded out some beginning rust spots and used that rubberized undercoating on it.
Thanks

In a 124 the jack goes behind the spare. There's a felt pad that catches the foot of the jack by the passenger side frame rail, a gold colored spring clip that holds the body of the jack on the aft wall of the spare wheel well and a plastic hanger that catches the top of the jack.

Pictures at 11...

Thanks. I am missing some pieces I think.

If you can bear with the cell phone pictures, you'll see a spare tire well with a jack and without. The jack is cradled by a plastic hanger on the driver side, a spring clip along the shank and against the passenger side frame rail. There are felt pads along the passenger side frame rail where the foot of the jack rests, along the bottom of the spare tire well where the post that engages the hole in the rocker panel of the car rests, and along the aft wall of the trunk where the jack's crank handle rests.

You'll not want to leave BARE,SANDED METAL with only "Rubberized Undercoating" as a finish!

'Better "Rust Bullet" or "POR15" AND then a Topcoat or two AND THEN THE R.U.
