Today's step-by-step instructions will show us the process of disassembling and replacing the wheel with the spare on the Ford Explorer. First, we open the rear tailgate of the trunk and begin to lift the floor to access the spare wheel and replacement kit; then we lift the car by placing the jack on the appropriate area and remove the front wheel, unscrewing all the bolts, as shown in the video.

Now we install the spare wheel or the spare tire, securing the bolts in a crisscross pattern; we reposition the entire kit in the designated compartment, including the wheel.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
