[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1018357, member: 52972"] I agree with swshawaii, however Ford only provides a side jack for changing tires?? Since you have a floor jack, the best way is to lift it at the center differential. as previously mentioned. Use a block of wood to prevent bending the lip of the differential cover which can result in leaks. After the vehicles wheels are well off the floor, put jack-stands on each side of the axle where the spring mounts are and gently lower the vehicle onto the jack-stands, but leave the floor jack in place for added support and stability. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
