3. When changing the front wheel, assemble the jack drive tube to the jack and
connect the drive tube to the extension tube. Place the jack under the axle as
close to the tire as possible with the drive tubes extending to the front. Connect
the jack tube extension and wheel wrench.
When changing a rear wheel, assemble the jack drive tube to the jack and
connect the drive tube to the extension tube. Securely place the jack under the
sway bar bracket (unless both tires are flat on one side, then place jack under
shock bracket) facing forward in vehicle. Connect the jack tube extension and lug
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.
NOTE:
If the jack will not lower by turning the
dial (thumbwheel) by hand, it may be
necessary to use the jack drive tube in
order to lower the jack.
4. By rotating the wheel wrench clock-
wise, raise the vehicle until the wheel
just clears the surface.
5. Remove the wheel nuts and pull the
wheel off. Install the spare wheel and
wheel nuts with the cone shaped end of the nuts toward the wheel on single rear
wheel (SRW) models. On dual rear wheel models (DRW) the lug nuts are a
two-piece assembly with a flat face. 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.
