    • Cars are very heavy and can pose danger when they are elevated by the car jack. Exercise caution around the elevated vehicle.

    • Crack the bolts loose before raising the car

    • Pump the jack handle evenly until the tire raises only an inch or two off of the ground. Be sure not to lay underneath the vehicle until the new wheel is properly installed.

    • Lug nuts hold the wheel in place. Use the 13/16" socket with a breaker bar to remove the lug nuts by turning the nuts counterclockwise.

    • Store the lug nuts in a safe place so that you do not lose them.

I have found it to be better to loosen the wheel nuts before you jack up the car. Also, when replacing the wheel nuts, these must be torqued to the proper value. This requires the use of a torque wrench. Consult your manual for the proper torque on the wheel nuts.
