Removal and Installation
WHEEL REMOVAL
1. Loosen wheel nuts by approximately 180° (half a rotation).
2. Hoist vehicle.
3. Remove wheel.
CAUTION: Never use heat to loosen tight wheel because application of heat to wheel can shorten life of wheel and damage wheel bearings.
Wheel nuts must be tightened in sequence given in figure and to proper torque to avoid bending wheel or brake disc.
NOTE: Before installing wheels, remove any build-up of corrosion on wheel mounting surface and brake disc mounting surface by scraping and wire
brushing. Installing wheels without good metal-to-metal contact at mounting surfaces can cause wheel nuts to loosen, which can later allow a wheel to
come off while vehicle is moving.
Tightening Torque (a): 85 Nm (8.5 kg-m, 61.5 ft. lbs.)
