BODY PADS
It is not necessary to remove the dump body to replace
body pads. Pads should be inspected during sched-
uled maintenance inspections and replaced if worn
excessively.
1. Raise the body to a height sufficient to allow
access to all pads.
Place blocks between the body and frame. Secure
blocks in place. Never work under a raised body
unless safety device(s) are in position to prevent
dump body from lowering.
2. Remove hardware attaching pads to the dump
body. (Refer to Figure 3-4)
3. Remove body pad and shims. Note number of
shims installed at each pad location. (The rear
pad on each side should have one less shim than
the other pads)
4. Install new pads with the same number of shims
as removed in step 3.
5. Install the mounting hardware and tighten to 65 ft.
lbs. (88.1 N.m) torque.
6. Remove blocks from frame and lower body onto
the frame.
