If you have a cargo van or a passenger van, the equipment you will need is located in the passenger side rear corner of the vehicle.

Remove the retaining wing bolt and lift it off of the mounting bracket.

If you have a van with the 15-passenger seating arrangement, the equipment you will need is secured on the rear floor of the passenger side of the vehicle.

To access the equipment, remove the retaining wing bolt and lift it out of the mounting bracket.

The tools you will be using include the jack (A), jack handle extension (B), jack handle (C), wheel wrench (D), and the ratchet (E).

The spare tire is stored underneath the rear of your vehicle. You will use the wheel wrench (D) and the ratchet (E) to lower the spare tire from the vehicle.

To lower the spare tire from the vehicle:

1. 
   
   

   Attach the wheel wrench and ratchet, with the DOWN side facing you. The wheel wrench has a socket end and a flat chisel end. Note that there is an UP side and a DOWN side on the ratchet.

2. Put the flat chisel end of the wheel wrench on an angle through the hole between the body and the bumper. Be sure the flat end connects into the hoist shaft.



3. Turn the ratchet counterclockwise to lower the spare tire to the ground. If the spare tire does not lower to the ground, the secondary latch is engaged causing the tire not to lower. See Secondary Latch System .



4. When the tire has been lowered, pull the tire toward you so you can reach the tire retainer and pull it up through the wheel opening.

If you have a vehicle which was completed from a cab and chassis, refer to the information from the body supplier/installer.

The spare tire is a full-size tire, like the other tires on your vehicle.
