Description of Change: The front gear group used on the 3500 Engines in these machines has been changed to help insure that the bolts that fasten the oil pump adapter assembly to the accessory drive housing remain tight. The new bolts that fasten the oil pump adapter to the accessory drive housing are one inch longer. These new longer bolts are used with spacers and washers. The new components allow increased bolt stretch, which will result in, improved bolt clamp load retention. This will help keep the new bolts tight.
