7. Loosen the wheel lug nuts coun-

terclockwise one turn each, but do
not remove any nut until the tire
has been raised off the ground.

8. Place the jack at the front or rear

jacking position closest to the tire

at the designated locations under
the frame. The jacking positions
are plates welded to the frame

vehicle until the tire just clears the

approximately 30 mm (1.2 in).
Before removing the wheel lug
nuts, make sure the vehicle is sta-
ble and that there is no chance for
movement or slippage.

10. Remove the wheel lug nuts by

turning them counterclockwise,
then remove the wheel.

11. Mount the spare tire into position

and install the wheel lug nuts
with the beveled edge inward.
