CONNECTION GP-HEATER 3298488 - Caterpillar

ACTION REQUIRED
Please carefully review the Service Claim Allowances Notes prior to applying this program.
Group 1 Off-highway trucks requires the replacement of the alternator mounting bracket, a new alternator, improved belt drive system and improved guard assembly, as well as the replacement of a coolant line to improve clearance for the new alternator guard assembly.
Group 2 off-highway trucks already contain the new alternator, mounting group and coolant line, so only the belt drive components and new guard-related components are needed.
Refer to Special Instruction REHS9653, "Procedure to Install the 437-0125 Charging Alternator Gp on Certain Off-Highway Truck Engines", for the installation of the alternator and drive belt systems.
