Component Replacement Instructions
14. Note the orientation (bolt head up) and position of the
crossmember fastening hardware that attaches the upper
end plates to the center channel. Remove and discard the
crossmember fastening hardware (Figure 58 and 59).
15. Note the orientation of the frame fastening hardware that
attaches the upper end plates to the frame rail. Remove
and discard the frame fastening hardware (Figure 60).
16. Remove the upper end plates from the mating surfaces
(Figure 58). Use caution NOT to damage surrounding
lines and/or wires.
NOTE: Make sure to protect hoses and/or electrical lines.
If damage to hoses and/or electrical lines occurs,
replacement may be required which will add time
to replacement procedures.
17. Using new hardware, attach the new reinforced upper
end plate to the center channel in the same orientation
and position noted in Step 13 (bolt head up). Use caution
NOT to damage surrounding lines and/or wires.

are installed.
18. Install the new frame fastening hardware in the same
orientation as noted in Step 14.
19. Once all fastening hardware is installed, make sure that
all mating parts are flat and square. Using a torque
wrench, tighten the center channel bolts to 300-380 ft.-lbs.
(407-515 N•m).
