DEFECT #1 - STEERING:WHEEL AND HANDLE BAR


Posted on: 1979-10-12
Description


Consequence


Corrective Action


Notes
Possibility that the lower steering shaft flexible coupling may have reduced flexibility due to insuffi- cient tolerance in assembly.normal differences in movement between vehicle cab and chassis components could force the coupling upward and cause the lower steering shaft splines to become disengaged from matching splines on the lower steering shaft flange, with resultant loss of steering control.(inspect and replace coupling with adjustable spline type as required.)

DEFECT #2 - STEERING:WHEEL AND HANDLE BAR


Posted on: 1979-10-12
Description


Consequence


Corrective Action


Notes
Possibility the flexible coupling upper flange-to-steering shaft clamp bolt may not have been properly tightened during assembly.if this bolt loosens, the mating splines of the flexible coupling flange and lower steering shaft could wear and the bolt eventually fall out, with a resultant loss of steering control.(correct by properly torquing bolt.)
