Jack point for tire rotation

You ever do the spare tire? Some guys on here do... seems like way too much work. ?

 

Funny you mention the spare as i usually drop it down once or twice a year to clean it and check the air pressure, but since it has a steel wheel and no pressure sensor you really couldn't work it into regular rotations.

 

Only people I know of that do that are those with a 5th matching wheel/spare, usually on a swingout bumper. I do a 5 tire rotation.

 

Me in 7 months lol, ugh just making more work for myself haha

 

You should really clean the wax from under there

 

No

1) lift rear axle and place on jack stands
2) remove both rear tires
3) jack front right, remove tire and put on rear left
4) move rear right to front right then lower jack
5) jack front left, remove tire and put on rear right
6) move rear left to front left then lower jack
7) lift and remove jack stands from rear

 

If you are very careful and methodical on level ground, you can go full monorail cat.

Pair of 6 tons on front on frame rail, pair of 3 tons on the rear. Jack in the center of the front cross member in front using a high reach 3 ton jack. I do a 5-wheel.

 

My guess is... Cover their ass, in case when/if it came with, or someone installs directional tries on it. Easier for a general rotation, then adding supplement for different tire configurations.

 

Don't use the factory bottle Jack without a piece of wood. Will bend the frame metal.

 

That’s snow/ice ...

 

....and he hammers the hell out of your lug nuts too for that $40.00. I'll pass.

 

+1 on the HF floor jack, love mine. Might want to pick up a good set of ear plugs too, on concrete they are louder than a jet engine taking off in your kitchen. Also if you have directional tires they have to rotate front to back/ back to front.

 

I bought 2 of these 6,000 lb. Unijacks for tire rotations.
