Lug Nut Tightening Sequence - Ford Ranger Owner's Manual

Lug nut tightening sequence

Use of wheels or lug nuts other than original equipment
could cause damage to the wheel or mounting system
and allow the wheels to come off while the vehicle is in
motion.
Replace any wheel covers, ornaments, or hub caps that your
7.
vehicle has. Make sure that they are screwed or snapped into
place.
Put the tire, jack, and wrench away. (Make sure jack is
8.
securely fastened so it does not rattle when you drive.)
Unblock the wheels.
9.
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with P265 75R15 AT tires
or P235 75R15 AT tires do not stow a flat or inflated
full size tire in the spare tire carrier. The carrier is
designed to hold the temporary spare which comes
with your vehicle. The stowage of a full size tire in
the spare tire carrier may damage the tire or the
vehicle. The flat full size tire should be stowed and
tied down in the pickup box bed until it can be
repaired.
