I don't have much issue of using the under-seat kit but agree with the fight on returning everything to that little box.
I miss the kits that used to come under the hood on the 150's.

Yea its pretty simple to use, just takes longer than a good floor jack but in the interests of saving space I'll take the kit. Not gonna haul around a 2 ton floor jack just in case I get a flat once every 5 years. But I agree getting it back in the box the first time was definitely the hardest part of the experience, lol! Easy once you do it a couple times though.

I called 'em Todd, however on a Saturday afternoon they said it would be approx. one hour before they could get there. I thought, well I'm standing in a crossover in the middle of a rural 4 lane road in "The Middle of No Where, South Carolina". It's 87 degrees with the humidity to match, I'm sweating like a ***** in church already, so I'll get started hoping the guy would get there before I finish. Yea, right, I called him and canceled his service before he left his shop. Just one of those things. I do give props to the South Carolina Highway Patrol. A Corporal stopped, and she jumped right in to help lifting that 2000 lb. tire onto the studs. Yep, it was a she. A good old Southern girl that didn't mind getting in there. What a Gal.
Of course I have a bottle jack, and a four way.........in the basement. I kept them in every truck I've owned, and never had a flat. Damn, that'll teach me to think........
