3. Remove the bolts by turning them
counterclockwise with an open−end
wrench. Remove the wheel ornament.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the orna-
ment to avoid unexpected serious in-
jury.
Your vehicle may have any of the above
wheel nuts.
1. Right−hand thread nut (no marks)
2. Left−hand thread nut (identified by
punch marks on each nut)

4. Loosen all the wheel nuts.
Always loosen the wheel nuts before rais-
ing the vehicle.
Models with double rear tires—Use the
large end of the wheel nut wrench to loos-
en the wheel nuts.
Front tires, single rear tires and double
rear tire (right):
Turn the wheel nuts counterclockwise to
loosen. To get maximum leverage, fit the
wrench to the nut so that the handle is
on the right side, as shown above. Grab
the wrench near the end of the handle
and pull up on the handle. Be careful that
the wrench does not slip off the nut.
Double rear tire (left):
Turn the wheel nuts clockwise to loosen.
To get maximum leverage, fit the wrench
to the nut so that the handle points to the
front of the vehicle. Grab the wrench near
the end of the handle and pull up on the
handle. Be careful that the wrench does
not slip off the nut.
Do not remove the nuts yet—just unscrew
them about one−half turn.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. The nuts may loose and the
wheels may fall off, which could cau-
se a serious accident.

5. Position the jack at the correct jack
point as shown.
Make sure the jack is positioned on a
level and solid place.6. After making sure that no one is in
the vehicle, raise it high enough so
that the spare tire can be installed.
Remove the wheel nuts and the tire.
Remember you will need more ground
clearance when putting on the spare tire
than when removing the flat tire.
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle
end into the jack (it is a loose fit) and
turn it clockwise with the handle, making
sure that the handle remains firmly fitted
onto the jack handle extension. As the
jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift,
double−check that it is properly positioned.
CAUTION
Never get under the vehicle when the
vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.

7. Remove the stop bolts, change tires,
reinstall the stop bolts and tighten
them.
Skip this step to the next unless the inner
rear tire is flat.
Use the small end of the wheel nut
wrench to loosen the stop bolts. Note that
both the stop bolts and the wheel nuts on
the right and left side of the vehicle have
different threads.
Lift the flat tire straight off and put it
aside.
Roll the spare wheel into position and
align the holes in the wheel with the bolts.
Then lift up the wheel and get at least the
top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle
the tire and press it back over the other
bolts.Reinstall the stop bolts and tighten each
bolt a little at a time in the order shown.
Repeat the process until all the bolts are
tight.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten
the bolts. Do not use other tools or any
additional leverage other than your hands,
such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
Make sure the wrench is securely en-
gaged over the bolt.
Before putting on wheels, remove any cor-
rosion on the mounting surfaces with a
wire brush or such.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. Doing so may lead to over-
tightening the nuts and damaging the
bolts. The nuts may loose and the
wheels may fall off, which could cau-
se a serious accident. If there is oil
or grease on any bolt or nut, clean
it.

8. Install the tire and all the wheel nuts
finger tight.
Vehicles with double rear tires—When
installingouter rear wheels, make sure the
stop bolts are securely tightened.
Roll the spare wheel into position and
align the holes in the wheel with the bolts.
Then lift up the wheel and get at least the
top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle
the tire and press it back over the other
bolts.
Reinstall the wheel nuts (tapered end in-
ward) and tighten them as much as you
can by hand. Press back on the tire and
see if you can tighten them more.Before putting on wheels, remove any cor-
rosion on the mounting surfaces with a
wire brush or such. Installation of wheels
without good metal−to−metal contact at the
mounting surface can cause wheel nuts to
loosen, and eventually cause a wheel to
come off while driving.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. Doing so may lead to over-
tightening the nuts and damaging the
bolts. The nuts may loose and the
wheels may fall off, which could cau-
se a serious accident. If there is oil
or grease on any bolt or nut, clean
it.

portion
CAUTION
Be sure to install the wheel nuts with
the tapered end facing inward. Instal-
ling the nuts with the tapered end
facing outward can cause wheel to
break and eventually cause a wheel to
come off while driving, which could
lead to an accident resulting in death
or serious injury.
9. Lower the vehicle completely and
tighten the wheel nuts.
To lower the vehicle, turn the jack handle
extension counterclockwise with the han-
dle, making sure the handle remains firmly
fitted onto the jack handle extension.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the
order shown. Repeat the process until all
the nuts are tight.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten
the nuts. Do not use other tools or any
additional leverage other than your hands,
such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
Make sure the wrench is securely en-
gaged over the nut.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY161
CAUTION
DWhen lowering the vehicle, make
sure all portions of your body and
all other persons around will not be
injured as the vehicle is lowered to
the ground.
DHave the wheel nuts tightened with
torque wrench to the following
torques, as soon as possible after
changing wheels. Otherwise, the
nuts may loosen and the wheels
may fall off, which could cause a
serious accident.

10. Reinstall the wheel ornament.
To reinstall the wheel ornament, tighten
the bolts by turning them clockwise with
the open−end wrench.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the orna-
ment to avoid unexpected serious in-
jury.

11. Check the air pressure of the re-
placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specification
designated on page 218 in Section 8. If
the pressure is lower, drive slowly to the
nearest service station and fill to the cor-
rect pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire inflation
valve cap as dirt and moisture could get
into the valve core and possibly cause air
leakage. If the cap is missing, have a new
one put on as soon as possible.
12. Restow all the tools, jack and flat
tire securely.
Front and single rear tires—
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the wheel nuts to the torque
specified on page 218 in Section 8 with
a torque wrench. Have a technician repair
the flat tire.
Double rear tires—
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the stop bolts and wheel
nuts to the torque specified on page 218
in Section 8 with a torque wrench. Have
a technician repair the flat tire.
This is the same procedure for changing
or rotating your tires.
CAUTION
Before driving, make sure all the
tools, jack and flat tire are securely
in place in their storage location to
reduce the possibility of death or se-
rious injury during sudden braking,
sudden swerving or an accident.
If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt
to rock the vehicle free by moving it
forward and backward.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and back-
ward if people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. During the
rocking operation the vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing injury
or damage to nearby people or ob-
jects.
NOTICE
If you rock your vehicle, observe the
following precautions to prevent dam-
age to the transmission and other
parts.
zDo not race the engine and avoid
spinning the wheels.
zIf your vehicle remains stuck after
rocking the vehicle several times,
consider other ways such as tow-
ing.
