Default crank stowage

Kind of like a model T, except the shaft of the hand crank is about 6 feet long. On a mk1 carrier the shaft stows just outside of the back armour, with the crank handle reversed so it doesn't protrude beyond the edge of the hull. I can't recall where it stows on a mk2, since I only deal with the older models of UC
My MkII stows the crank on the rear deck just behind the rear compartment armour with crank reversed and laid flat on the rear deck. Welsh stowage design carrier anyway.
