SUSPENSION AND STEERING
WHEELS | WHEEL ASSEMBLY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (See figures 1, 2 and 3) NOTE: Vehicles equipped with 13 inch tires have a 4 stud wheel mounting system. Vehicles equipped with 14 inch tires have either a 4 or 5 stud wheel mounting system.
  1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
  2. Remove the jack, tire iron and if necessary, the spare tire from their storage compartments.
  3. Check the owners manual or refer to Section 1 of this manual for the jacking points on your vehicle. Then, place the jack in the proper position.
  4. If equipped with lug nut trim caps, remove them by either unscrewing or pulling them off the lug nuts, as appropriate. Consult the owners manual, if necessary.
  5. if equipped with a wheel cover or hub cap, insert the tapered end of the tire iron in the groove and pry off the cover.
  6. Apply the parking brake and block the diagonally opposite wheel with a wheel chock or two.
  7. TIP! Wheel chocks may be purchased at your local auto parts store, or a block of wood cut into wedges may be used. If possible, keep one or two chocks in your tire storage compartment, in case any of the tires has to be removed on the side of the road.
  8. If equipped with an automatic transaxle, place the selector lever in P or Park; with a manual transaxle, place the shifter in Reverse.
  9. With the tires still on the ground, use the tire iron/wrench to break the lug nuts loose.
  10. TIP! If a nut is stuck, never use heat to loosen it or damage to the wheel and bearings may occur. If the nuts are seized, one or two heavy hammer blows directly on the end of the bolt usually loosens the rust. Be careful, as continued pounding will likely damage the brake drum or rotor.
  11. Using the jack, raise the vehicle until the tire is clear of the ground. Support the vehicle safely using jack stands.
  12. Remove the lug nuts, then remove the tire and wheel assembly.
