INSPECTION
A. Body Inspection
1. Visually inspect the pintle hook Body Casting
(1) for signs of excessive wear, or fatigue such as
deformation or cracks. If any such conditions are
noted, the entire hook should be replaced. (This is
a good time to check the mounting structure, bolts,
and air chamber. Contact vehicle manufacturer for
guidelines.)
