2. Place the jack assembly in the spare tire well aligning it with the two
vertical studs.
3. Place the tire in the spare tire well over the jack assembly.
If you are stowing a flat 22 inch tire and wheel assembly,
temporarily remove the load floor, plastic stowage bins, and the foam
load floor supports to make space for the 22 inch tire and wheel
assembly. Place the 22 inch tire & wheel assembly in the spare tire well
with the valve stem facing down. Rotate the tire until the jack assembly
is able to protrude through a wheel opening. Replace the plastic stowage
bins and foam supports around the 22 inch tire and wheel assembly and
then replace the load floor.
If you are stowing a flat tire, place the tire in the spare tire well with
the valve stem facing down. Rotate the tire until the jack assembly is
able to protrude through a wheel opening.
If you are stowing the spare tire, place the spare in the spare tire
well in its original position.

turning the wing nut clockwise.

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and
rust. Use only Ford recommended replacement fasteners.
WARNING: When a wheel is installed, always remove any
corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting
surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Ensure that any fasteners that
attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with
the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct
metal-to-metal contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in
motion, resulting in loss of control.
