How to replace the wheel with the spare one on the Ford Explorer

Model: Ford Explorer MK 5, U502 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Wheel

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.
