Tire and Wheel Removal and Installation Disc Type - Single

Caution: To avoid eye injury, use approved safety lenses, goggles, or face shield to prevent eye injury when deflating tires.

Important: When removing and demounting any tire and wheel assembly, deflate the tire by removing the valve core. Perform this procedure before removing the tire assembly from the vehicle.

1. Raise the vehicle until the tire clears the floor. Support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
2. Remove the wheel nuts.



3. Remove the wheel from the hub.



4. If the vehicle is equipped with hub-piloted wheels, use a brush in order to apply a thin coat of Frey Lube II® lubricant or equivalent to the hub pads only.

1. If the vehicle is equipped with hub-piloted wheels, turn the hub so that a hub pad is at a 12 o'clock position.



2. Install the wheel on the hub.




Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Important: Tighten the wheel nuts progressively using the first specification; then tighten the nuts using the second specification.

3. For 8-hole aluminum or steel hub-piloted wheels, install the wheel nuts.
