•
When changing a rear wheel, assemble the jack
drive tube to the jack and connect the drive tube to
the extension tube. Place the jack under the axle
between the spring and the shock absorber with the
drive tubes extending to the rear.
•
Connect the jack tube extension and wheel wrench.
Before raising the wheel off the ground, make sure
that the jack will not damage surrounding truck
parts and adjust the jack position as required.
4. By rotating the wheel wrench clockwise, raise the
vehicle until the wheel just clears the surface.
WARNING!
Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make
the vehicle unstable and cause an accident. It could
slip off the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the
vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
5. Remove the wheel nuts and pull the wheel off. Install
the spare wheel and wheel nuts. Lightly tighten the nuts.
To avoid risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not
fully tighten the nuts until the vehicle has been lowered.
