To crank a spare tire on an expedition vehicle, first locate the spare tire winch mechanism, usually found under the rear or at the back of the vehicle. Use the provided crank handle or a compatible tool to turn the winch, which will lower the spare tire from its storage position. Ensure you turn the crank in the correct direction, typically counterclockwise, until the tire reaches the ground. Once lowered, you can remove the tire for use.
