The loose shock may contact and damage the steering gear housing, possibly causing a steering fluid leak and a loss of power steering assist.

 

Remedy

Rosenbauer will notify owners, and Reyco dealers will install a new bolt, nut, hardened washer, and shim, free of charge. The recall began February 6, 2020. Owners may contact Reyco customer service at 1-765-543-5815 or Rosenbauer customer service at 1-877-543-5591.

Purpose: To provide instruction for inspection and repair of the effected joint.

 

Please Read the Entire Tech Tip Before Proceeding With Any Work. Follow industry standards regarding safety equipment and procedures.

 

Inspection and Repair should be conducted immediately.

 

Tools Needed:

1. 5/8″ hex (Allen) drive socket. Example Snap-On item # SA20E
2. Yi” or %” drive torque wrench – 250 ft-lbs capable
3. Yi” or %” breaker bar
4. W’ drive, 12″ long extension
5. 1 1/16″ box end wrench or similar torque drive adaptor for a socket.

 

Parts:

Kit #K715183 that includes the following:

(2) 714189-01 -Long Spacers
(2) 714190-01 – Sho1t Spacers
(2) 715176-01 – Socket head bolts
(2) 710356-01 – Ny-lock nuts
( 1) D7 l 5182 – Installation Instruction

Also include in the above kit are shims to address any variations in the width of cradle pocket (reference Step 2 and 5 below).

(2) 714198-01-0.020″ Shim
(2) 714199-01 -0.032″ Shim
(2) 714200-01 – 0.062″ Shim
(3) 714201-01-0.125″ Shim
(1) 715181-01 – “Go-No Go” Gage for use in Step 2.

 

Replacement:

  1. Remove and discard upper shock absorber eyelet hardware (nut, bolt, and spacers).
  2. Use the 715181-01 “Go-No Go” Gage to check the width of the pocket near the bolt holes.
    1. If the gage slips into the pocket, then the pocket is too wide and a shim will be needed to close the gap.
    2. If needed, add shims between one of the spacers and the pocket inside face during reassembly such that the gap between the spacer and the pocket wall is minimized. Use one of the 0.062 shims (#714200-01) if necessary to check that the gap is less than 0.062″ (Placing the shims against either the front or rear mount is acceptable).
  3. Install new hardware including spacers and shims from kit as shown below.
    1. Note: One 714201-01 shims must be installed under the head of each 715176-01 Bolt.
    2. Assembly tip: Insert bolt through the rear tab enough to hang needed shims and short spacer, place shock in position, advance bolt to engage shock, position long spacer, push bolt through front tab, and install nut.

 

  1. Using a socket extension thru the access holes in the cradle, torque the head of the bolt to between 245 and 260 ft-lbs while holding the nut with a wrench.
  2. Repeat Steps I through 4 on the opposite side.

 

Labor Allowance: 0.7 hr not to exceed $85.00.
