To Stow The Flat Or Spare
NOTE:
RAM 1500 vehicles equipped with aluminum wheels cannot be stored under the
vehicle because the wheel retainer will not fit through the wheel pilot hole. Secure
the flat tire in the bed of the truck. Have the flat tire repaired or replaced
immediately.
• Turn the wheel so that the valve stem is down. Slide the wheel retainer through the
center of the wheel and position it properly across the wheel opening.
• For convenience in checking the spare tire inflation, stow with the valve stem
toward the rear of the vehicle.
• Attach the wheel wrench to the extension tube. Rotate the winch mechanism until
the wheel is drawn into place against the underside of the vehicle. Continue to
rotate until you feel the winch mechanism slip, or click three or four times. It
cannot be overtightened. Push against the tire several times to be sure it is firmly
in place.
