Where can I get a jack and lug nut wrench?

I thought this would be so easy, but I can't find a replacement set of wheel changing tools. I didn't realize the tools and jack were missing when I bought the car, but I figured they would be easily found on ebay. No such luck. Who sells them? I really don't want to pay much at all for them - every dead car in history left an orphaned jack and lug nut wrench, there have to be thousands around.

Have you checked a junkyard?

I bought a cross at AutoZone, and cheap OEM replacement mechanical jacks are easy to find at most if not all auto part stores for about 20-25$.

Most junkyards I have been to have the mechanical jacks sitting on shelves as you are paying for your items. A cross should do the trick like NmexMAX stated.

I have had luck in the past with junk yards. There should be bunch of Nissans coming in that have tools in them.

Have a look for the threads where the owners is parting out their car and then contact the thread creator to see if they have what you are looking for.

Harbor Freight Tools have quite a selection at very reasonable prices.
