* Underneath the van: This is common. You'll likely need a wrench (often stored with the spare) to release a clamp or lower a mechanism. Look for a panel or access door underneath, often near the rear bumper or behind the rear wheel well.
* Inside the van: Some models might have the spare stored inside, possibly under the floor or behind a panel in the cargo area.
* On the side: Less common, but some older models might have had a side-mounted spare.
To find out exactly where your spare tire is and how to remove it:
1. Check your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source of information. It will have diagrams and instructions specific to your van's year and model.
2. Examine the van: Look carefully under the van, in the cargo area, and along the sides for any access panels, clamps, or straps that might indicate the location of the spare.
3. Consult online resources: Search online for "[Your Ford Econoline 150 Year] spare tire location" to find videos or forums discussing the process for your specific model. Include the year and possibly the trim level (e.g., XL, XLT).
Without knowing the year and model of your Ford Econoline 150, it's impossible to give precise instructions. Always prioritize safety when working under a vehicle. Use jack stands if you need to lift the van to access the spare.
