spare tire changing kit?

My 87 pickup has the jack and rod in the back of the cab for changing the spare tire but i don't have the lug wrench or anything, unless i just don't know where it is? Anyone know where it is or if anyone has an extra kit they want to part with I'd like to get one. thanks!

Seriously??? All that's in the kit besides what you have is a janky tire iron with a flathead prybar on the other end. Go get yourself a set of real tools to keep in your rig. Harbor Freight is a great place to look. They even send out 20% off coupons in the mail/newspaper like every week and hand tools are lifetime guarantee. Get a basic 1/2" metric and ase deep socket sets as well as some larger deep sockets (like 17-30mm or whatever size they come in as a set). Not everyone has same wheels and lugs since many different wheels fit our rigs, so just make sure you get one that works on yours. I like a breaker bar for breaking lugs free, with a long enough extension to get to the lugs. Done.
