5.Use the wheel nut wrench to removethe wheel trim, if equipped.
6.Loosen each wheel nut one-half turncounterclockwise. Do not remove themuntil the wheel is raised off the ground.
7.For E-350 dual wheel and E-450equipped with hydraulic jacks, twohandle extensions are used to operatethe jack. To assemble, align the buttonwith the hole and slide the partstogether. To disconnect, press thebutton and pull apart.
Jacking the Vehicle
Position the jack under the correct jackingpoints according to following pictures.
Front axle jacking point: Place the jackunder the pin on the front surface of thefront axle.

Rear axle jacking points: All models exceptE-350 and E-450 dual rear wheel.
Rear axle jacking points: E-350 and E-450dual rear wheel.
Turn the jack handle clockwise. Forhydraulic jacks, operate the handleup-and-down until the wheel is completelyoff the ground and high enough to installthe spare tire.
Installing the spare wheel and tire
1.Remove the wheel nuts with the wheelnut wrench, replace the flat tire withthe spare, making sure the valve stemof the spare is facing outward whenreplacing a front wheel. For the rearwheel position on vehicles with singlerear wheel fitments, install the sparewith the valve stem facing outward.For vehicles with dual rear wheels, thevalve stem of the spare must faceoutward when replacing an innerwheel, but must face inward whenreplacing an outboard wheel.
2.Install the wheel nuts and fingertighten. Do not fully tighten the wheelnuts until the wheel has been lowered.
3.Lower the vehicle completely byturning the jack handlecounterclockwise.
Note:For hydraulic jacks, insert the releasevalve, open release valve slightly by turningthe handle counterclockwise. Stop turningthe release valve when vehicle start tolower. Close the valve when the vehicle iscompletely lowered.

5.Remove the jack and fully tighten thewheel nuts in the sequence shown. SeeTechnical Specifications (page 225).
6.Install any wheel covers or hubcaps.Make sure they snap into place.
Note:When installing the wheel centerornaments, make sure that the ornamentretention towers on the back side of theornament are aligned with the studs andwheel nuts and retain to the flange on thewheel nuts.
Stowing the Flat tire or Spare tire
1.Place the tire on end with the valvestem facing toward the front of thevehicle. Lay the tire on the ground, nearthe rear of the vehicle, with the valvestem side facing up.
2.Slide the wheel partially under thevehicle and install the retainer throughthe wheel center. If equipped, you mayhave to remove the wheel center capprior to pushing the retainer throughthe center of the wheel. To remove thecenter cap, press it off with the wheelnut wrench tip from the inner side ofthe wheel. Pull on the cable to align thecomponents at the end of the cable.
3.Turn the wheel nut wrench clockwiseuntil the tire is raised to its stowedposition underneath the vehicle. Thewrench becomes harder to turn andthe spare tire winch ratchets or slipswhen the tire is raised to its maximumtightness. A clicking sound is heardfrom the winch indicating that the tireis properly stowed. Check that the tirelies flat against the frame and isproperly tightened.
4.Unblock the wheel.

WARNING: When you install a wheel, remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign materialspresent on the mounting surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brakedrum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure to secure any fasteners thatattach the rotor to the hub so they do not interfere with the mounting surfaces of thewheel. Installing wheels without following these steps can cause the wheel nuts toloosen and the wheel to come off while your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss ofvehicle control, personal injury or death.
