PROBLEM
The Front Wheels on certain 794 AC, 796 AC, and 798 AC Off-Highway Trucks may have been assembled with grade 5, 432-9994 Bearing Retainer Bolts. The bearing retainer bolts should be assembled only with grade 8 hardware (432-9994 Bolts, quantity 10 per wheel assembly). The grade 5 bolts used could lead to a potential bolted joint issue and poor component life. |
