I think I may have one in the garage somewhere, but why would you want it? Not thinking of playing Land Rover Russian Roulette are you? Or do you have a relative you don't like who's going to help you with an oil change? "No, mother-in-law dear, it's perfectly stable I assure you.". There are two rules for success,

It would be great if you do and this is not Robbie being an eco-warrior and saving these from landfill, I've just been caught out by forum members not having one in their boot with the newer winch installed. Fine if I have my D4 to hand, but if the wife has it then in a pickle I am.
Not keen on the new style but if you know what you are doing you can use it without raising the seats.

If it's just the hooked handle, you can have it, I have just replaced the scissor jack with one from a Sprinter. You have, however, reminded me that I need to keep the original tinfoil wheel brace in the car to raise and lower the spare and not just have the breaker bar in there.

I'm curious. If everyone has dumped the hook, how will you pull the EPB emergency release loop should it be necessary? I know most people will pamper there EPB assembly but failures can occur.Freelander SE 2005 Auto.

I swear that the cable on some of them is welded to the chassis somewhere by a prankster JLR employee!Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948

This is why I asked Robbie. I was unfortunate enough to have my EPB jamb on a week after getting my D3. Freeing the EPB required the loop to be pulled. Without the LR hooked multi tool, I really would have struggled. I was stunned at just how hard I needed to pull the cable.Freelander SE 2005 Auto.
