How to Remove the Spare Tire of Wuling?

[DeWyatt]

Between the rear bumper and the rear body panel of the vehicle, there is a non-hexagonal screw, usually a large flat-head screw. Use the hook on the front edge of the jack lever to loosen this screw, but be careful not to extend your feet under the vehicle body, as it may vary depending on the batch. The precautions for installing the spare tire are as follows: 1. Before installing the spare tire, it is best to place the removed tire under the vehicle to avoid accidents. 2. Make sure all the tire fixing screws are tightened before removing the jack. 3. When tightening the screws, follow the diagonal sequence, and do not tighten them in a clockwise or counterclockwise order one by one.

When I drove the Wuling Hongguang, the spare tire was fixed under the chassis, secured with an iron frame. To remove it, I had to first find a safe place to park and turn off the engine, then slowly jack up the rear of the car. After that, I had to crawl under the car to locate the fixing screw of the spare tire frame—usually a large bolt that needed to be loosened with the onboard wrench. Remember not to rush the removal; first, make sure the car is stable. Once, I was too hasty after a flat tire on the highway and didn’t secure the jack properly, which almost caused an accident—luckily, a passerby helped. After loosening the screw, the spare tire could slide out. Before pulling it out, check the tire pressure and condition to ensure it’s usable in an emergency. The whole process isn’t too difficult, but the key is to take it slow and prioritize safety. Wearing gloves is also a good idea to avoid getting dirty. I also regularly apply lubricant to these screws to prevent rust and seizing.

As someone who frequently works on cars, I've found that installing the spare tire on Wuling vehicles is quite straightforward. The spare tire is usually suspended under the chassis beam, secured by a metal bracket. To remove it, first stabilize the car body with a jack, then use a professional wrench to loosen the bracket's bolts—these are often very tight, and I've seen many people strip them by using the wrong tools. It's advisable to use a properly sized wrench and apply gentle force to loosen them, avoiding excessive torque. After removing the spare tire, dust it off and check the tread for any cracks or deformations. Remember to periodically spray anti-rust oil on the bracket chains to prolong their lifespan. Ensure the car is on level ground during the operation, and avoid cluttering the trunk with items that might get in the way. The whole process takes about five to ten minutes, and beginners shouldn't panic—all the necessary accessories are in the tool kit.

When I first learned to drive, I was startled by how to remove the spare tire, but now I understand it's actually not complicated. For Wuling vehicles, the spare tire is usually located under the car—just crouch down and look for the bolt on the mounting bracket. After stabilizing the car with a jack, simply unscrew the bolt to remove the spare tire. Remember to operate in a parking lot and wear old clothes to avoid getting dirty. Beginners can first check the owner's manual for reference on the position and take it slow—no need to rush. On my first try, I almost lost the tools. After removing the spare tire, quickly check if the pressure is sufficient for easy backup use.
