SERVICE BULLETIN

Customers purchasing an Explorer Van equipped with cast alloy wheels must be made aware of the lug nut tightening procedure

necessary in the immediate break-in period of the van.

Lug nuts need to be checked and tightened often the first one hundred (100) miles and once again after an additional two

hundred fifty (250) miles. Lug nuts should then be checked every one thousand to fifteen hundred (1,000-1,500) miles.

If the wheels are ever removed for service or tire rotation, the initial lug nut tightening procedure must be gone through again.

Failure to follow proper lug nut tightening procedures could result in wheel stud failure and possible loss of the wheel.

Optional Upgrade TiresThe buyer understands that the original tire manufacturer provides

a warranty for any implied defects.

Page 23

Lug nut adapter provided in Care Package.

Wheels

Please note that it is normal for the front wheels to accumulate more dust than the rear wheels. This dust is the normal result of wear on the front disc brake pads. Be sure to follow the cleaning

directions on page 24.

Page 29: FORD - Explorer Van Conversions · Vehicle Make_____Model_____ Model Year ... TV Listening ... package to an automotive van or light truck chassis will be free from defects in

Page 24

Note on Alloy Wheels

If your van is equipped with alloy wheels that have a special coating, clean these wheels only with a soft cloth and warm soapy

water—never use a wire brush or other objects that might remove the protective coating on the wheel.

Never use any cleaners.

Running board CapacityThe running board capacity for high top and

low top vans is 300 lbs.

THE CARE & MAINTENANCE OFPVD COATED WHEELS

PDV (Physical Vapor Deposition) coated aluminum wheels are not the same as chrome plated wheels and clean up easily with the use

of soap and water.

Explorer recommends the use of mild soap (or “car wash” soap) and water with a soft sponge for cleaning on a regular basis. Dry

with a soft cloth.

AVOID spraying cold water on extremely hot wheels. Always allow wheels to cool before cleaning.

DO NOT USE abrasive wheel cleaners or acid based chrome wheel cleaners intended for use on chrome plated wheels.

DO NOT USE steel wool or stiff bristle brushes on the finish.

If a scratch does appear, we recommend the use of Meguiar’s Scratch X 2.0 for the removal of mild scratches. Follow

manufacturer’s instruction on product bottle.
