Hi J. Normally altogether in the black bag, somebody might have had them out and not put them back, im sure somebody on the forum will have a spare.
Don’t suppose they are in the other side or left under the boot lid where the spare wheel winder is.

If you don't find them, then a jack handle will be needed ( but bear in mind the LR supplied jack is not that safe to use Whistle ), the wheel brace I wouldn't bother with either, just get yourself a 1/2" drive breaker bar, and a 22mm hex socket to go on it. Thumbs Up

Have a gander here (enter your own car info) for the manual, good advice to have something on board if you are in the middle of nowhere with a flat tyre, make sure you’ve got the locking wheel nut key and that it actually fits yours. Thumbs Up long breaker bar sounds good helps when the nuts are on a bit tighter than the supplied one will take off.

Have a look in Halfords or if your near a tool stockist, buy the best one you can afford, or a nice torque wrench then you know how tight the nuts should be. Thumbs Up

Sealey AK730 breaker bar ( 600mm long), or you can get longer ones if you wish, and a socket from the Halfrauds range should do. Thumbs Up
