1989 CSX Owner's Manual
Torque
Studs must be free of rust and dirt. Wheels shall be torqued to a minimum of 95 ft·lbs and a maximum of 100 ft·lbs as measured by a recently calibrated torque wrench.
Balancing Weights
Only "AW" type balance weights should be used.
Cleaning of Wheels
Keep wheels clean regularly with soap and water to avoid buildup of foreign materials and dirt. Avoid the caustic soaps and carbide tipped brushes used by some commercial car washes for tire cleaning. Remove foreign chemicals promptly after exposure.
Use only non-abrasive polishes. Do not use abrasive cleaners, wire brush, or any tool prone to scratch your wheel's surface.

In Case of Emergency
All instructions for this section are the same as they appear in the Dodge Owner's Manual in addition to that noted below.
Jack location, usage, and storage are illustrated on the label affixed to the spare tire cover in the trunk.
Carefully follow the prescribed precautions and instructions listed in your Dodge Owner's Manual whenever you raise or lower the car.
CAUTION: Only raise your Shelby CSX by the jack mounts located behind the side sills. DO NOT use the jack on plastic body pieces, as damage will occur.
If your car is disabled and require towing, do not use a "sling type" system. This will cause damage to the front air dam or rear skirt. Shelby Automobiles recommends that a flat bed or wheel lift equipment be used should your Shelby require towing. Please refer to your Dodge Owner's Manual for further towing instructions.
