13.8 kg-m (100 ft-lb) and that none are missing.

Rear Gate

Check that the rear gate closes and latches securely.
Check that the adjustable section of the rear gate
opens and closes without sticking.

Hitch, Jack, and Rear Jack Leg

Check that the hitch pin and jacks are not damaged,
and the safety pins are in place. (Replace missing or
damaged safety pins.)
Check that the hitch conections are not loose. (If so,
install a spacer between the hitch connections.)
Safely stow all jacks in the up position before
