Bulletin Summary
MCI noticed that some customers operating in severe duty environments were experiencing the exterior U-Joints of the lower steering shaft binding due to corrosion. Because of this, MCI has developed a new re-greaseable U-Joint service kit (NF PN: 6505981) to replace the existing greased for life U-Joint on lower steering shafts. Rework instruction and preventive maintenance guide are provided below. Following this procedure and preventive maintenance will increase the life of MCI lower steering shafts.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
