To remove the spare tire: 1. Open the rear doors and remove the thumb screw and anti-theft bracket. If finger pressure will not remove the thumb screw, use the lug wrench to loosen the screw. 2. Remove the access plug under the left door. 3. Remove the jack handle from the right side compartment and insert the tip of the jack handle through the access hole and into the tube. 4. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise until the cable is slack and the tire can be slid from under the vehicle. 5. Remove the retainer from the spare tire. To stow the cable retainer with the spare removed, turn the jack handle clockwise until all slack is removed. 6. Block the wheel that is diagonally opposite the tire you are changing. On E-450 vehicles, the parking brake is on the transmission. Therefore, the vehicle will not be prevented from moving when a rear wheel is lifted, even if the parking brake is applied. Be sure to block both directions of the wheel that is diagonally opposite to the wheel that is being lifted. 7. Remove the spare tire and jack from the storage location. 270Wheels and Tires 2014 Econoline(eco) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing, September 2013 USA(fus)
•The jack is located in the rear right-hand side of the cargo area. 8. Remove any wheel trim. Insert the tapered end of the lug nut wrench behind wheel covers or hubcaps and twist off. 9. Loosen the wheel nut by pulling up on the handle of the lug nut wrench about one-half turn (counterclockwise). Do not remove the wheel lug nuts until you raise the tire off the ground. Replacing the Tire 1. Assemble the jack handle sections together and lock into the jack. Use the jack handle to slide the jack under the vehicle. 2. Position the jack to raise the front or rear wheel. Note:Jack at the specified locations to avoid damage to the vehicle.

Rear axle jacking points - All models except E-350 dual rear wheel and E-450 Rear axle jacking points - E-350 dual rear wheel and E-450 Front axle jacking points: Note:Do not place the jack under or on the steering linkage. Place the jack under the pin on the front surface of the front axle. 3. Raise the jack until the wheel is completely off the ground. Turn the jack handle clockwise if your vehicle is equipped with a screw-type jack or pump the jack if equipped with a hydraulic jack. 4. Remove the lug nuts with the lug nut wrench. 5. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire. If your vehicle has single rear wheels, thread the lug nuts on the studs with the beveled face toward the wheel. If your vehicle has dual rear wheels, thread the two element swiveling lug nuts on the studs with the flange facing toward the wheel. 6. Use the lug nut wrench to screw the lug nut snugly against the wheel. 7. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack handle counterclockwise. 272Wheels and Tires 2014 Econoline(eco) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing, September 2013 USA(fus)
8. Remove the jack and fully tighten the lug nuts in the following pattern. SeeWheel Lug Nut Torque Specificationsin this chapter for the proper lug nut torque specification. 9. Install any wheel covers, ornaments or hub caps. Make sure they are snapped in place. 10. Stow the jack, handle and lug wrench. 11. Unblock the wheels. Stowing the Flat or Spare Tire Note:Failure to follow spare tire stowage instructions may result in failure of cable or loss of spare tire. 1. Lay the tire on the ground with the valve stem facing in the direction specified on the Tire Changing Instructions located with the jack hardware. 2. Slide the wheel partially under the vehicle and install the retainer through the wheel center. Pull on the cable to align the components at the end of the cable. 3. Turn the jack handle clockwise until the tire is raised to its stowed position underneath the vehicle. The effort to turn the jack handle increases significantly and the spare tire carrier ratchets or slips when the tire is raised to the maximum tightness. Tighten to the best of your ability, to the point where the ratchet/slip occurs, if possible. The spare tire carrier will not allow you to overtighten. If the spare tire carrier ratchets or slips with little effort, take the vehicle to your authorized dealer for assistance at your earliest convenience. 4. Check that the tire lies flat against the frame and is properly tightened. Try to 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. 5. Repeat this tightness check procedure when servicing the spare tire pressure (every six months, as per yourscheduled maintenance information),or at any time that the spare tire is disturbed through service of other components. 6. If removed, install the spare tire lock into the bumper drive tube with the spare tire lock key and jack handle.1 7 3 5 6 4 8 2 Wheels and Tires273 2014 Econoline(eco) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing, September 2013 USA(fus)
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. Make sure 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. On vehicles equipped with single rear wheels, retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at 100 miles (160 kilometers) after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel removal). On vehicles equipped with dual rear wheels, retighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque at 100 miles (160 kilometers), and again at 500 miles (800 kilometers) of new vehicle operation and after any wheel disturbance (such as tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel removal).

On all two-piece flat wheel nuts, apply one drop of motor oil between the flat washer and the nut. Do not apply motor oil to the wheel nut threads or the wheel stud threads. Note:Inspect the wheel pilot hole and mounting surface prior to installation. Remove any visible corrosion or loose particles.
