IMPORTANT
On vehicles produced from S/N CB16459, RB16446, BF11143, S11188 &
SN11196 :
A small number of vehicles used a shim washer in behind the brake disc. This shim
washer will need to be reinstalled to the output shaft before the brake disc is slipped
on. This is required to align the brake disc to the hydraulic caliper properly. Take
note of the transmission serial number to correctly identify these vehicles.
All 6 wheel hydraulic brake vehicles with serial numbers between BF11321 & BF11390.
i Apply anti-seize compound to the spline of the output shafts.
All 8 wheel vehicles with serial numbers between RB16700 & CB16778.
v. Apply blue LOCTITE 242 to the threads of the brake disc mounting bolt and install
it along with the lockwasher, clamping washer and any other spacers or washers that
were used previously. See NOTES on page BR-37.
