NOTE: |
This Revised Service Letter replaces the 10Jun2010 Service Letter. Changes have been made to the Action Required and Rework Procedure. The Rework Procedure is now documented in a Service Magazine article. |
The existing drive shaft guard can contact the transmission and torque converter on certain 797F Off-Highway Trucks. This results in additional rework during assembly and can result in damage to the transmission and torque converter if not corrected. |
No parts needed for this program |
Refer to Service Magazine article, "An Improved Drive Shaft Guard Group is Now Used on the 797F Off-Highway Truck" for the detailed rework instructions. |
