4. There are two jack engagement points on the vehicle for the front and rear tires.

The front tire jacking location is located behind the front tire and in front of the
driver/passenger door. The rear tire jacking location is located in front of the rear
tire and in front of the leaf spring mount.

5. Operate the jack using the lug bolt

adapter and wrench handle.

6. Rotate the wheel wrench clockwise to

raise the vehicle until the wheel just
clears the surface.

7. Remove the wheel bolts and pull the

wheel off. Install the spare wheel and
wheel bolts with the cone shaped end of
the wheel bolts toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the wheel bolts. To avoid
the risk of forcing the vehicle off the
jack, do not fully tighten the wheel bolts
until the vehicle has been lowered.

8. Using the wheel wrench, finish tight-

ening the wheel bolts using a criss-
cross pattern. The correct wheel bolt tightness is 145 ft lbs (197 N·m) torque.
If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a torque wrench
by your authorized dealer or at a service station.

9. Install the wheel center cap and remove the wheel blocks. Do not install chrome or

aluminum wheel center caps on the spare wheel. This may result in cap damage.

10. Lower the jack to its fully closed position.
11. Stow the cable and flat tire before driving vehicle.
12. Stow the jack, jack handle and winch handle tools back in the stowage

compartment.

13. Check the spare tire pressure as soon as possible. Correct the tire pressure as

required.
