TRUCK AXLE REPLACEMENT

If you should receive an inquiry as to whether the new truck bevel axle can be installed under a truck formerly equipped with a worm type axle, you can advise that it would be possible to do so in trucks having the emergency brake in the center.

If the truck is equipped with a rear universal joint assembly, having less than 1 1⁄8” thick rings, (see Fig. 796, November, 1928, Bulletin) it will be necessary to install an AA-7090-AR with 1 1/8“ rings. This joint has six splines on the front knuckle and ten splines on the rear (see Fig. 847).

In. installing a new bevel axle under an old truck, the new axle will extend 1⁄4″ further back than the old design. To compensate for this, it will be necessary to lengthen the brake rods 1⁄4″ by screwing out on the clevises.
