GEAR 6T1218 - Caterpillar

TERMINATION DATE
31Aug2015
PROBLEM
The existing configuration of the charge valve on machines with TPMS that have installed the new right hand upper suspension mounting hardware do not allow enough room to service the suspension cylinder from the rear on certain 773F and 775F Off-Highway Trucks. A new 4364009/">436-4009 Adapter has been released that will allow access to now properly service the suspension cylinder.
