Jacking the Vehicle
1. Insert the jack handle into the pumplinkage.
2. Use an up-and-down motion with thejack handle to raise the wheelcompletely off the ground.
Note:Hydraulic jacks are equipped with apressure release valve that prevents liftingloads which exceed the jack's ratedcapacity.
3. Remove the lug nuts with the lugwrench.
4.Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,making sure the valve stem is facingoutward on all front an inboard rearwheels. If you are replacing theoutboard wheel, the valve stem mustbe facing inward. Reinstall the lug nutsuntil the wheel is snug against the hub.Do not fully tighten the lug nuts untilthe wheel has been lowered.
5. Lower the wheel by slowly turning therelease valve counterclockwise.Opening the release valve slowly willprovide a more controlled rate ofdescent.
6. Remove the jack and fully tighten thelug nuts in the order shown. SeeTechnical Specifications (page 301).
7. Stow the flat tire. See Stowing the flator spare tire if the vehicle is equippedwith a spare tire carrier.
8. Stow the jack, jack handle and lugwrench. Make sure the jack is securelyfastened so it does not rattle whendriving.

Installing Dual Rear Wheel Ornaments
1. Align the ornament with the lug nuts.A is the clip and B is the flange.
2. Hold the ornament so that all of theretention clips are sitting on the flangeof the lug nuts.
3. Use your hand or rubber mallet to tapthe ornament in a star pattern. Thereshould be an even gap between theornament and the wheel.
4. Be sure to install all the clips on thenuts over the flanges so that there isan even gap all around and theretention clips are fully seated.

Stowing the Flat or Spare Tire
Note:Failure to follow spare tire stowageinstructions may result in failure of cable orloss of spare tire.
Note:If you are stowing a tire that requiresreattaching it to the vehicle with a tether,perform these steps first, then proceed withthe following steps.
1. Place the tire on end with the valvestem facing toward the front of thevehicle.
2. Place the tether into the bolt holes inthe wheel and attach the lug nut usingthe lug wrench.
3. Lay the tire on the ground with thevalve stem facing up.
4. Slide the wheel partially under thevehicle and install the retainer throughthe wheel center. Pull on the cable toalign the components at the end of thecable.
5. Turn the jack handle clockwise untilthe tire is raised to its stowed positionunderneath the vehicle. The effort toturn the jack handle increasessignificantly and the spare tire carrierratchets or slips when the tire is raisedto the maximum tightness. Tighten tothe best of your ability, to the pointwhere the ratchet/slip occurs, ifpossible. The spare tire carrier will notallow you to overtighten. If the sparetire carrier ratchets or slips with littleeffort, take the vehicle to yourauthorized dealer for assistance at yourearliest convenience.
6. Check that the tire lies flat against theframe and is properly tightened. Try topush or pull, then turn the tire to besure it will not move. Loosen andretighten, if necessary. Failure toproperly stow the spare tire may resultin failure of the winch cable and lossof the tire.

7.Repeat this tightness check procedurewhen servicing the spare tire pressure(every six months, per scheduledmaintenance information), or at anytime that the spare tire is disturbed
through service of other components.
8. If removed, install the spare tire lockinto the bumper drive tube with thespare tire lock key and jack handle.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING
When a wheel is installed, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign materialspresent on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub,brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fastenersthat attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with the mountingsurfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at thewheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come offwhile the vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of control.
lb.ft (Nm)Bolt size
165 lb.ft (224 Nm)M14 x 1.5
*Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and rust. Use only Fordrecommended replacement fasteners.
On vehicles equipped with single rear wheels, retighten the lug nuts to the specified torqueat 100 miles (160 kilometers) after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changinga flat tire, wheel removal).
On vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels, retighten the wheel lug nuts to the specifiedtorque at 100 miles (160 kilometers), and again at 500 miles (800 kilometers) of newvehicle operation and after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changing a flattire, wheel removal).
It is important to follow the proper wheel mounting and lug nut torque procedures.
On all two-piece flat wheel nuts, apply one drop of motor oil between the flat washerand the nut. Do not apply motor oil to the wheel nut threads or the wheel stud threads.
