2012 FORD F750 lock

Supporting your vehicle for service
Prepare the vehicle for service repairs by doing the following:
1. Park the vehicle on a level concrete floor.
2. Set the parking brake and block the wheels to prevent the vehicle
from moving.
3. Select a jack with a rated capacity sufficient to lift and hold up the
vehicle.
4. Raise the vehicle with the jack applied to the axle(s). DO NOT use the
bumper as a lifting point.
5. Support the vehicle with floor stands under the axle(s). If the axle or
the suspension are being serviced, support the vehicle with floor stands
under the frame side-members, preferably between the axles.
WARNING:Do not use a jack when working under a vehicle. It
may give way, causing the vehicle to fall and result in property
damage, personal injury or death. Always use floor stands to support
the vehicle.
FRAME AND TOW HOOKS
Your vehicle’s chassis is manufactured with frame rails of either HSLA
steel or heat-treated steel; each must be handled in a specific manner to
ensure maximum service life. Consult the service manual or your dealer
before attempting frame repair or modification.
It is important, particularly on vehicles where the tow hooks are used
frequently, to inspect the front and rear tow hooks for damage or a loose
mounting.
SPRING U-BOLT CHECKS
Check U-bolt nuts and re-torque every 36,000 miles (58,000 km) after
initial 1,000 miles (1,600 km) re-torque. The U-bolt and nut threads and
seats should be cleaned and lubricated to ensure peak condition when
re-torqued.

If rib tire is used on front axle and lug or off-road type on rear axle
positions:
1.Front (Steering) Axle:Replace tires at front wheels when tread is
worn to 4/32 inch (3 mm) or less.
2.Rear Axles:Tires must be removed when the tread is worn to
2/32 inch (2 mm) or less. Tires identified with the word “re-groovable”
molded on the sidewall can be re-grooved. A minimum of 3/32 inch
(2.5 mm) of under-tread must be left at the bottom of the grooves.
Wheel and tire balancing
Out-of-round or out-of-balance wheels or tires can cause vehicle
vibration, bounce and shimmy. Replace damaged or out-of-round wheels.
Out-of-round tires and wheel assemblies can be corrected by re-clocking
the tire relative to the wheel.
The tire and wheel assembly should then be dynamically balanced.
Wear
Radial tires can exhibit three types of normal wear patterns:
1. Even
2. Erosion
3. Chamfer
Even wearis a sign that the tire is being properly used and maintained.
Erosion wearhas also been called rolling wear, channel or river wear.
Erosion wear is found more often at free rolling tires. This is an
indication that the tire is being used in a slow wearing operation. What
happens is that the belt plies are held very rigid and the tread is not
allowed to distort as it passes through the contact area. Wear only occurs
at the edge of the tread. No corrective action required. If erosion gets to
be 1/16 inch (2 mm) or more, the tire may be rotated to a drive axle.
Chamfer or shoulder wear,with tires inflated properly, is a normal
tendency of most radial tire designs. If both inside and outside shoulders
are wearing evenly around the tire, no further action is required.
Over-inflation is not effective in correcting this effect.
Tires: Irregular Wear
If irregular wear is present, check the axle alignment, tire pressure,
wheel balancing, shock and suspension component condition, and wheel
bearing end play.
This condition not only shortens tire life, but adversely affects the
handling of your vehicle, which is dangerous.
