Can You Change an F-150 Lightning Tire Yourself on the Side of the Road?

Күн бұрынWhen we first received our Lightning we changed out the tires/wheels. Our 1.5 Ton Floor Jack could not lift the rear of the truck up. Now on a recent road trip we got a screw through the sidewall and stopped at a local Firestone to have the tire swapped out. But this got me thinking... can the included scissor-style jack that Ford provides lift the rear if the 1.5 Ton floor jack could not?
Short answer: YES it can. It takes a bit of work but since it uses a different design over a floor jack it lifts the rear up just enough to change your tire.
Good to know on future road trips. I wouldn't want to do this along the side of a highway in Florida heat/humidity but still good to know you CAN change your own tire on the side of the road despite the truck being so HEAVY!

I was wondering if the wait would be too much. It looks good :-)

For anyone with experience with offroad suspensions, that’s not the best way. The best way is to put the jack under the lower control arm of the affected tire. This way you can lift just the affected tire and not the entire vehicle.
