the best of your ability, to the point
where the ratchet or slip occurs, if
possible. The spare tire carrier will not

push or pull, then turn the tire to be
sure it will not move. Loosen and
retighten, if necessary. Failure to
properly stow the spare tire may result
in failure of the winch cable and loss
of the tire.

scheduled maintenance information),
or at any time that the spare tire is
disturbed through service of other
components.
