Ummm! I don't get it.

I never thought you'd post on this topic! I just don't ever want to use the jack post, I don't even want to hear that the long is crunching OR see that the jack goes up but the car stays down (mine is rust free but I'm still not gonna check). Maybe think of it as "spare tire/spare jack."
You know, if I ever show the car, I could always take the jack out...............haven't canceled my eBay bid either.

Biz,
Just because it crunches, doesn't mean the long is shot. Happens frequently, but usually means the jack reciever is bad (an approx. 4x4 parts mounted to the long). It's an easy fix, IF you need it. Really, no big deal.
I never use the jack spurs as a method for lifting m7 914 in the air, because I don't have a lot of trust in the jack. But, on the road...yeah, for changing a tire. I'd NEVER crawl under the car unless the car was on stands.
