							Jacking location
Front axle jacking point: Place the jack
under the pin on the front surface of the
front axle.
Note:
Do not place the jack under or on the
steering linkage. Rear axle jacking points: All models except
E-350 and E-450 dual rear wheel. Rear axle jacking points: E-350 and E-450
dual rear wheel.
Installing the spare wheel and tire
1. Refer to the diagrams above to locate
the correct jacking point for your
vehicle.
2. Raise the vehicle by using the jack handle to turn the jack nut clockwise.
Once the flat tire is raised above the
ground, remove the lug nuts with the
lug wrench.
3. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire,
making sure the valve stem is facing
outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the
wheel is snug against the hub. Do not
fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel
has been lowered.
4. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle clockwise. 5. Remove the jack and fully tighten the
lug nuts in the order shown.  See
Technical Specifications (page 189).
6. Install any wheel covers or hubcaps. Make sure they snap into place.
7. Stow the jack and lug wrench.

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 your vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of control.  lb.ft (Nm)

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.
