Found in the tool bag that was in the defender when I bought it, do they belong and what they for? [circled in red]



Cheers in advance

The black thing looks like an early propshaft nut socket, the other 'sockets' look like, as said, locking wheel nut removers and the nut with a square top looks like a filler plug for something.
 
Well I'm glad they're not that obvious coz I'd feel a right plonker:eek:

The bit's on the right were altogether in a bag, the black extension thing if I remember fit's in into another piece, perhaps it's just a wheel brace off another vehicle:confused:



Now I know they're not land rover they can get chucked in the shed and I don't have to carry them about.

Cheers everyone

I have this on my vito.

the black wheel wrench is for undoing the wheel nuts (obviously), the extension piece is for when the spare wheel is mounted against the side of the vehicle such that the flat side is against the side of the vehicle, and the central mounting bolt is within the wheel. this lets you get enough space to turn the wrench, it's not designed for red face tight, which is why it has a flimsier construction than the wrench.

That all makes sense:D

Make sure you put them "in a safe place" in your shed - don't just put them anywhere, else you'll never find them again, you must put them in "a safe place" :)
