--------------- END SUPPLEMENT ---------------
Some OEM's (Original Equipment Manufacturers) now have a truck model with a setback front axle. On these trucks a 9N3167 Plate is used between the oil pan and the cylinder block. A gasket must be used between the 9N3167 Plate and the cylinder block. This plate is held in place by additional bolts that are separate from the oil pan. The 9N3167 Plate weighs approximately 31 kg (68 lb). Because of the weight of this plate, use care when removing the plate.
