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.
INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse removal procedure, noting the followings.
• Wheel nuts must be tightened in sequence and to proper
torque to avoid bending wheel or brake disc.
NOTE:
Before installing wheels, remove any build-up of corro-
sion on wheel mounting surface and brake disc mount-
ing 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.
