Installation Procedure

Caution: Before installing the wheels, remove any buildup of corrosion on the wheel mounting surface and brake drum or disc mounting surface by scraping and wire brushing. Installing wheels with poor metal-to-metal contact at the mounting surfaces can cause wheel nuts to loosen. This can cause a wheel to come off when the vehicle is moving, causing loss of control and possibly personal injury.

1. Install the tire and wheel assembly. Align the locating mark of the tire and wheel to the hub assembly.

Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in Cautions and Notices.





2. Install the wheel nuts. Tighten the wheel nuts evenly and alternately in. order to avoid excessive runout.
^ Tighten the wheel nuts to 95 Nm (69 ft. lbs.).
3. Install the hub cap (if equipped).
4. Lower the vehicle.
