GENERAL VEHICLE INSPECTION
AND MAINTENANCE
Pre-Ride / Daily Inspection
Perform the following pre-ride inspection daily, and when
servicing the vehicle at each scheduled maintenance.
• Tires - check condition and pressures
• Fuel tank - fill to proper level
• All brakes - check operation and adjustment
• Throttle - check for free operation and closing
• Headlights/Taillights/Brakelights - also check
operation of all indicator lights and switches
• Ignition switch - check for proper function
• Wheels - check for tightness of wheel nuts and
axle nuts; check to be sure axle nuts are secured
by cotter pins
• Air cleaner element - check for dirt; clean or
replace
• Steering - check for free operation noting any
unusual looseness in any area
• Loose parts - visually inspect vehicle for any
damaged or loose nuts, bolts or fasteners
• Engine coolant - check for proper level at the
recovery bottle
• Check all front and rear suspension components
for wear or damage.
Frame, Nuts, Bolts, and Fasteners
Periodically inspect the torque of all fasteners in
accordance with the maintenance schedule. Check that
all cotter pins are in place. Refer to specific fastener
torques listed in each chapter.
Shift Cable Inspection / Adjustment
Shift cable adjustment may be necessary if symptoms
include:
• No AWD or gear position display on instrument
cluster
• Ratcheting noise on deceleration
• Inability to engage into a gear
• Excessive gear lash (noise)
• Gear selector moving out of desired range
1. Locate the shift cable in the rear LH wheel well area.
2. Inspect shift cable, clevis pin, pivot bushings, and
dust boot. Replace if worn or damaged.
3. If adjustment is required, loosen the lower jam nut
and pull the cable out of the mount to move the
upper jam nut.
4. Adjust the shift cable so there is the same amount of
cable travel when shifting slightly past the detents of
HIGH (H) gear and PARK (P).
5. Thread the upper or lower jam nut as required to
obtain proper cable adjustment.
NOTE: This procedure may require a few
attempts to obtain the proper adjustment.
6. Once the proper adjustment is obtained, place the
shift cable and upper jam nut into the mount. Tighten
the lower jam nut against the mount.
7. Start engine and shift through all gears to ensure the
shift cable is properly adjusted. If transmission still
ratchets after cable adjustment, the transmission will
require service.
