CHECK HORIZONTAL STEER PIVOT CLEARANCE
1.
Position roller on a hard level surface. Stop engine and apply parking brake (TM 5-3895-379-10).
2.
Attach base of dial indicator (Figure 13, Item 1) to top of steering pivot housing. Set dial indicator actuator
against front face of rear frame.
3.
Set dial indicator (Figure 13, Item 1) to zero.
4.
Put a hydraulic jack under rear frame at pivot assembly.
5.
Raise hydraulic jack and record reading on dial indicator (Figure 13, Item 1).
6.
With new bearings, bushings and pins, total recorded movement should be 0.004 - 0.030 in. (0.10 - 0.76mm).
On used roller, total movement should not exceed 0.050 in. (1.27 mm).
7.
If movement is too much, steering pivot housing should be disassembled. Bushings, bearings and any other
worn components should be replaced.
