• Block the diagonally opposite wheel.
NOTE:Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Jacking And Tire Changing Instructions
• Rotate the thumb screw on the jack to loosen the assembly and remove the jack
from the bracket.
• Remove the jack tools from the bag.
• Raise the rubber mat and remove the plug from storage compartment floor.
• The spare tire is stowed under the rear of the vehicle by means of a cable winch
mechanism. To remove or stow the spare, use the jack handle/lug wrench
connected to the square socket extension to rotate the “spare tire drive” nut
located under the removable plug.
• Use the lug wrench handle and extension to completely lower the spare tire. Keep
turning the handle until the winch stops.
NOTE:Do not use power tools to operate the winch.
• Slide the tire out from under the vehicle and rotate it vertically behind the rear
bumper.
• Spread the retaining tabs on the plastic plate and pull the metal stamping toward
you to release it from the plastic plate.
• Slide the metal stamping up the steel
extension tube and winch cable.
Rotate the metal stamping and push it
through the hole in the plastic plate
and wheel.
• Pinch the three short and two long
tubes to remove the plastic plate from
the steel spare wheel.

• Determine the jacking location on the
side of the vehicle. Add the cap to the
top of the jack and raise the jack until
the cap is fully engaged on the body
flange by the notches on the sill trim.
• Loosen the lug nuts on the road wheel
one turn, but do not remove.
• Raise the vehicle just enough to
remove the flat tire.
• Install the temporary spare and lightly
tighten the lug nuts prior to lowering.
• Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug
nuts twice to 110 ft-lbs (150 Nm).
• Push out the Dodge center cap and
snap the plastic plate on the aluminum
road wheel.
NOTE:The plastic plate will prevent the
road wheel from being scratched when
sliding it under the vehicle.
• Stand the wheel up against the
bumper with the plastic plate facing
you.
• Slide the cable end, spring and metal
tube through the wheel and plastic
plate. Rotate the stamping on the
cable and push it through the wheel
and plastic plate. Snap the stamping
into place.
• Slide the wheel on the ground to position it under the vehicle.
• Use the lug wrench handle and extension to completely raise the wheel. Rotate the
handle until the winch clicks three times.
• Return the tools to the bag and reinstall the jack and tool kit on the bracket.
• Remove the blocks from the opposite tire.
• Repair the road tire and/or wheel as soon as possible and return the spare to the
designed location.
WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving
traffic. Pull far enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel.
