• Turn the key in the ignition to the OFF/UNLOCKED position.
• The maximum recommended speed is 88 km/h (55 mph).
• The maximum recommended distance is unlimited.
• The vehicle must be towed in the forward position to ensure no
damage is done to the internal transfer case components.
In addition, it is recommended that you follow the instructions
provided by the aftermarket manufacturer of the towing
apparatus if one has been installed.

Improper removal/installation of the driveshaft can cause
transmission fluid or transfer case fluid loss, damage to the
driveshaft and internal transmission and transfer case
components.

Conventional spare tire information (if equipped)
If you have the conventional spare tire, you can use it as a spare or a
regular tire. The spare is identical to the other tires on your vehicle,
although the wheel may not match.

The spare tire and tools for your vehicle are stowed in the following
locations:
ToolLocation
Spare tire Under the vehicle, just forward of
the rear bumper
Jack, jack handle, wheel nut wrench Regular Cab: behind seats and
underneath the jack and tools
cover
Cab Plus: stowed in the passenger
side rear cab compartment or
behind the jump seat in a separate
tool bag
Cab Plus 4–Door: stowed behind
the front seats, between jump
seats and underneath jack and
tools cover.
Key, spare tire lock (if equipped) In the glove box

the rear access hole located just
above the rear bumper and
below the tailgate.

hole located just above the rear
bumper and below the tailgate.

resistance to turning will be felt
when properly engaged. 4. Turn the handle counterclockwise until tire is

2. Install the retainer through thewheel center and slide the
wheel under the vehicle.
3. Turn the spare handle clockwise until the tire is raised to its
original position underneath the
vehicle. The spare handle
ratchets when the tire is raised
to the stowed position. It will
not allow you to overtighten.
4. If your vehicle is equipped with P265/75 R15 AT tires, do not stow a flat or inflated full size spare tire in the spare tire carrier. The flat
full size tire should be stowed and tied down in the pickup box bed
until it can be repaired.
5. If removed, install the spare tire carrier lock on the access hole above the bumper.
Tire change procedure WARNING: When one of the front wheels is off the ground, the
transmission alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or
slipping off the jack, even if the vehicle is in P (Park)
(automatic transmission) or R (Reverse) (manual
transmission).
WARNING: To help prevent the vehicle from moving when you
change a tire, be sure the parking brake is set, then block (in
both directions) the wheel that is diagonally opposite (other
side and end of the vehicle) to the tire being changed.
WARNING: If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or someone
else could be seriously injured.
