NOTE
Equalizer beams and frame must be level to perform axle camber adjustment properly.
Axle camber angle measurements must be taken with relationship to frame. If frame is not
level, the angle the frame is inclined must be added or subtracted from the axle camber
measurement.
Axle flange assembly measurement of 86 degrees 0.5 degrees equals axle camber of four
degrees 0.5 degrees (90 degrees -
(12)
Measure the angle (in degrees) that flange
assembly (8) is cambered.
(a)
Position protractor and steel plate on
frame at point A. Adjust protractor to
zero degrees.
(b)
Position protractor and steel plate on
machined surface of the flange
assembly (8) and record measurement.
Measurement should read 86 degrees
0.5 degrees.
(13)
If axle camber is not four degrees 0.5
degrees, add or subtract spacers (36) until
correct axle camber is achieved.
(14)
Remove chains and transmission jack from
Axle No. 1 (21).
(15)
Coat threads on shaft of torque rod (20)
with lubricating oil.
(16)
Install tapered shaft of torque rod (20) in
Axle No. 1 (21).
NOTE
Tighten locknut only until
locknut is flush with threads of
torque rod. Otherwise, other end
of torque rod will be difficult to
install.
(17)
Position washer (22) and locknut (19) on
torque rod (20).
