Front Axle - Tow Bar Installation (If Equipped)
INSTALLATION:
NOTE: Before assembly coat all bearing, pin, thrust wash-
ers, and shoulder screw wear surfaces with a light
coating of multi-purpose grease. Keep screw threads
free of grease since thread locking compound will be
used there.
1. Place the tow bar (3) into the axle mount (1) with a
thrust washer on the top and bottom, aligned with
the pivot pin hole.
2. Slide the tow bar pivot pin (5) down through the hole
in the top axle mount weldment and through the tow
bar and thrust washers, then into the lower axle
mount weldment.
3. Fix the tow bar pivot pin into place by sliding the
banjo locking pin through the hole in the pivot pin.
Secure the banjo locking pin to the upper tow bar
mount with the screw provided. Apply thread locking
compound-(#242) to threads of screw, then tighten.
4. Install the steering link (4) to the tow bar (3) with the
shoulder screw (6), placing a thrust washer between
the steering link and the tow bar as shown above.
Apply thread locking compound-(#242) to the
shoulder screw (6) threads, then tighten.
5. Attach the other end of the steering link (4) to the
axle tie rod assembly. Place a thrust washer under
the head of the shoulder screw (6), apply thread
locking compound-(#242) to the screw threads.
Slide the screw and thrust washer into the steering
link and align with the mounting hole in the tie rod
assembly, tighten the screw.
If removal is required, tow bar can be completely removed
by removing the pivot pin (5) and the tie rod - tow bar
shoulder screw (6). Place all loose parts in a clean plastic
bag for later use.
When re-installing repeat all steps except step (4) since
this connection should not have required disassembly.
