REPAIR
LIFTING THE VEHICLE
Tool List Qty. Required
Floor jack..................................................................... 1
Jack stands ................................................................. 4
Chocks ........................................................................ 4
Some servicing operations may require the front wheels,
the rear wheels, or the entire vehicle be raised.
To reduce the possi-
bility of severe inju-
ry or death from a
vehicle falling from a jack:
Be sure the vehicle is on a firm and level
surface.
Never get under a vehicle while it is sup-
ported by a jack.
Use jack stands and test the stability of
the vehicle on the stands.
Always place chocks in front and behind
the wheels not being raised.
Use extreme care since the vehicle is
extremely unstable during the lifting pro-
cess.
When lifting vehicle, position
jacks and jack stands at the
areas indicated only.
To raise the entire vehicle, install chocks in front and
behind each front wheel (Ref Fig. 9 on page 8). Center
the jack under the rear frame crossmember. Raise the
vehicle enough to place a jack stand under the outer
ends of the rear axle.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on the
two jack stands.
Place the jack at the center of the front axle. Raise the
vehicle enough to place jack stands under the frame
crossmember as indicated.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on all
four jack stands.
If only the front or rear of the vehicle is to be raised, place
the chocks in front and behind each wheel not being
raised to stabilize the vehicle.
Lower the vehicle by reversing the lifting sequence.
WHEELS AND TIRES
Tire Repair
Tool List Qty. Required
Lug wrench, 3/4"..........................................................1
Impact socket, 3/4", 1/2" drive ..................................... 1
Impact wrench, 1/2" drive ............................................1

A tire explosion can
cause severe injury
or death. Never
exceed inflation pressure rating on tire side-
wall.
To reduce the possibility of tire explo-
sion, pressurize tire with small amount
of air applied intermittently to seat
beads. Due to the low volume of the
small tires, overinflation can occur in
seconds. Never exceed the tire manufac-
turer’s recommendation when seating a
bead. Protect face and eyes from escap-
ing air when removing valve core.
