NOTE:

• There are front and rear jacking locations on each side of the body. The front

locations are outlined by two triangular cutouts, the rear locations by two
rectangular cutouts.

• For vehicles equipped with plastic

trim, the plastic has been cut away
to expose the jacking locations in
the body.

• Do not raise the vehicle until you are

sure the jack is securely engaged.

3. Turn the jack screw to the left until the

jack can be placed under the jacking
location. Once the jack is positioned,
turn the jack screw to the right until
the jack head is properly engaged with
the lift area closest to the wheel to be
changed.

4. Using the swivel wrench raise the ve-

hicle by turning the jack screw to the
right. Raise the vehicle only until the
tire just clears the surface and enough
clearance is obtained to install the
spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides
maximum stability.
