WARNING

Wheel nuts that are improperly or
incorrectly tightened can cause
the wheels to become loose or
come off. The wheel nuts should
be tightened with a torque wrench
to the proper torque specification
after replacing. Follow the torque
specification supplied by the
aftermarket manufacturer when
using accessory locking wheel
nuts. See Capacities and
Specifications on page 12‑2
for
original equipment wheel nut
torque specifications.

Notice: Improperly tightened
wheel nuts can lead to brake
pulsation and rotor damage. To
avoid expensive brake repairs,
evenly tighten the wheel nuts in
the proper sequence and to the
proper torque specification. See
Capacities and Specifications on
page 12‑2
for the wheel nut
torque specification.

13. Tighten the nuts firmly in a

crisscross sequence as shown
by turning the wheel wrench
clockwise.

14. After installing the wheel and

tire, reinstall the center cap.
Place the cap on the wheel and
tap it into place until it sits flush
with the wheel.
