WHEELS
General
Wheel bearings should be inspected, lubricated and adjusted at regular
intervals. This is especially important if operating in deep sand, mud, or
water. Refer toLubricant specificationsin this chapter.
When installing wheel balance weights, they must be mounted on the
dome-side of the wheel only. Failure to do so may result in loss of wheel
weight and/or damage to brakes or wheels.
Oil lubricated front wheel bearings
During normal vehicle duty cycle, the lube and air inside the hub/wheel
cavity expands and if not vented, causes pressure build-up that could
cause accelerated seal wear.
There are two venting methods:
•a slit or small hole in the rubber check vent or
•the window
You can use either of these methods to prevent pressure build-up.
Normal maintenance
Over a period of time, if not routinely cleaned, a slight film of oil can
collect dirt around the rubber fill plug and face, which could appear to
be a leak. Routine cleaning ensures that the lube level can be easily
observed through the clear window as intended. In situations where the
window is clean on the outside but discolored on the inside, the lube
level may be checked by inserting a finger through the rubber check
vent hole.
The specified lube level for a clear window type hubcaps is from the
minimum line to + 5/16 inch above the minimum line.
If the lube level should suddenly drop dramatically below the minimum
level, see the Service Manual for diagnostic procedure.

* Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of freezing
weather, where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in appearance, the system
should be drained, flushed and refilled with the prescribed solution of cooling
system fluid and water. Use only permanent type coolant that meets Ford
specifications WSS-M97B51-A1. See the engine manufacturer’s operating guide for
supplemental corrosion inhibitor specifications.

In addition to the items to be performed daily or at each oil change, the
following need to be completed as specified:
Maintenance Operation Frequency — ObservationClean body/door drain holes.
Clean windshield wiper blades.
Replace windshield wiper blades.
Lubricate body lock cylinders, door and hood hinges.
Check headlamp alignment.
Check windshield washer fluid level. Add fluid if required.At least twice annually.
As required.
If wiping the blades with a clean cloth and mild detergent
and washing the windshield with a cleaner does not restore
a clean wipe.

Lamp beams in wrong position when vehicle operating
loaded.
If washers do not spray fluid when operated. GENERAL MAINTENANCE SERVICES
Listed below are vehicle checks that should be made periodically either by the owner or a qualified technician. It is recommended
that deficiencies be brought to the attention of your dealer or another qualified service outlet as soon as possible in order that
advice regarding the need for service or replacement can be obtained.
