4. To remove the spare tire, turn the handle counterclockwise until the
tire is lowered to the ground and the cable is slightly slack.
5. Slide the retainer through the center of the spare tire wheel.
6. Block the wheels (both front or
both rear) on the opposite end of
the vehicle from the wheel being
changed. If on a grade, block both
wheels on the downward side of the
hill.
7. Turn off the air suspension system (if equipped). Also, turn off the
deployable running boards (if equipped). See theDriving Aidschapter.
8. Obtain the spare tire and jack tools from their storage locations.
9. Use the tip of the jack handle to remove any wheel trim.
10. Loosen each wheel lug nut one-half turn counterclockwise but do not
remove them until the wheel is raised off the ground.
11. Position the jack according to
the jack locator arrows found on the
frame and turn the jack handle and

shown and reinstall the wheel cover.
SeeWheel Lug Nut Torque
Specificationslater in this chapter
for the proper lug nut torque
specification.
18. Unblock the wheels.
19. Put flat tire, jack, lug wrench and tools away. Make sure the jack bag
is properly reinstalled around the jack and tools assembly tray with the
strap securely fastened. Be sure to tighten the wing nut sufficiently so it
does not rattle when you drive.
20. Turn on the air suspension system.
Stowing the Spare Tire
1. Lay the tire on the ground, near the rear of the vehicle, with the valve
stem side facing up.
2. Slide the wheel partially under
the vehicle and install the retainer
through the wheel center. If
equipped, you may have to remove
the wheel center cap prior to
pushing the retainer through the
center of the wheel. To remove the
center cap, press it off with the jack
tool from the inner side of the
wheel. Pull on the cable to align the
components at the end of the cable.
3. Assemble the jack handle and winch extension (as shown in
illustration), then insert the winch extension through the access hole
behind the 3rd row seat and engage the winch.
4. Turn the jack handle clockwise until the tire is raised to its stowed
position underneath the vehicle. The wrench will become harder to turn
and the spare tire winch will ratchet or slip when the tire is raised to
maximum tightness. A clicking sound will be heard from the winch
indicating that the tire is properly stowed.
5. Disassemble the jack tool and winch extension and snap them back
into the tool tray.

(turn clockwise until tight).
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Wheel Lug Nut Torque Specifications
WARNING:When a wheel is installed, always remove any
corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting
surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Ensure that any fasteners that
attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with
the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct
metal-to-metal contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in
motion, resulting in loss of control.
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque within 100 miles
(160 kilometers) after any wheel disturbance (rotation, flat tire, wheel
removal, etc.).

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and
rust. Use only Ford recommended replacement fasteners.
Note:Inspect the wheel pilot hole
and mounting surface prior to
installation. Remove any visible
corrosion or loose particles.
