You need to wind it back just enough so the arm swings back round tight against the body. Twist - "no doesnt tuck in" Twist - "nope!" Twist - "ah winner! Why do people find this so flipping difficult?" ________________________________________  |

Never had issue with a pug jack, though I never make a habit of using it tbh, as long as you're on the flat they're fiiine  ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Time for an FAQ...

you can either use the re-enforced ledge at the front that will lift the whole side of the car,..or there's a little ridge at the back of the side skirt that the oem jack uses just use that! there isn't anywhere re-enforced enough at the rear to support a jack ________________________________________ Proud Member of the ASTOR Owners Club |
