If you are stowing the flat tire,

remove the “L”-shaped bolt from the

large wing nut used to secure the

spare tire in the vehicle. With the

3rd row seat in the raised position,

stand the flat tire in the rear of the

vehicle with the tire’s valve stem

facing the rear of the vehicle.

Fasten the flat tire to the vehicle by

inserting the “L”-shaped bolt

through one of the lug bolt holes in

the wheel and turning clockwise into the threaded hole in the vehicle

until the tire is secured.

If you are stowing the temporary spare tire, place the tire over the

jack and secure it with the large wing nut.

WHEEL LUG NUT TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at 100 miles (160 km)

after any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel

removal, etc.).

Bolt size Wheel lug nut torque*

lb.ft. N•m

1/2-20 UNF 100 135

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and

rust. Use only Ford recommended replacement fasteners.

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.
