You must use the flat end of the lug wrench to pull off the wheel skins. Locate the hub
cap pull notches (2 notches on each cap). Insert the flat tip completely and using a
back and forth motion, loosen the wheel skin. Repeat this procedure around the tire
until the skin pops off.
Replace the wheel skins first using a rubber mallet. When replacing the hub caps, tilt
the cap retainer over the lug nut bolt circle and strike the high side down with a
rubber mallet. Be sure that the hub caps and wheel skins are firmly seated around the
wheel.
Dual Rear Wheels
Slots in the wheels will assist in properly orienting the inner and outer wheels. Align
these slots when assembling the wheels for best access to the tire valve on the inner
wheel. The tires of both dual wheels must be completely off the ground when
tightening to insure wheel centering and maximum wheel clamping.
Dual wheel models require a special heavy-duty lug nut tightening adapter (included
with the vehicle) to correctly tighten the lug nuts. Also, when it is necessary to remove
and install dual rear wheels, use a proper vehicle lifting device.
NOTE:
When installing a spare tire (if equipped)
as part of a dual rear wheel end combi-
nation, the tire diameter of the two indi-
vidual tires must be compared. If there is
a significant difference, the larger tire
should be installed in a front location.
The correct direction of rotation for dual
tire installations must also be observed.
