brake air dryer (or every 3 years, or 10,800 hours,
whichever occurs first). Replace desiccant on
Bendix-Westinghouse units.
Footnotes
† = The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or the
California Air Resources Board has determined that the
failure to perform this maintenance item will not nullify
the emission warranty or limit recall liability prior to
the completion of the vehicle’s useful life. We, however,
urge that all recommended maintenance services be
performed at the indicated intervals and the
maintenance be recorded.
(1)= If your vehicle has an Allison automatic
transmission, your GM owner’s manual is supplemented
by an Allison Transmission
®Operator’s Manual.
Always refer to these manuals for related maintenance
services.
(2)= Refer to the Caterpillar
®Diesel Engine Operation
and Maintenance Manual for oil recommendations
and change intervals.
(3)= An Emission Control Service.
(4)= A Noise Emission Control Device.
(5)= Applies only to vehicles sold in the United States.(6)= Check fluid level in brake master cylinder, power
steering pump, axle, transmission and hydraulic
spring parking brake pump (if equipped). A low fluid
level in the brake master cylinder can indicate
worn brake linings and should be checked accordingly.
(7)= Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper
hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect
disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface
condition. Inspect caliper assemblies. Check brake
pedal for excessive free play or travel (or every
6 months, whichever occurs first) and have serviced if
needed. Check brakes more often if driving habits
and conditions result in frequent braking.
(8)= Inspect parking brake drum and linings for wear or
cracks and check linkage and adjustment.
(9)= This vehicle has the GM Oil Life System. This
system will show you when to change the engine oil and
filter – usually between 3,000 miles (5 000 km) and
7,500 miles (12 000 km) since your last oil change.
Under severe conditions, the indicator may come on
before 3,000 miles (5 000 km). Never drive your vehicle
more than 7,500 miles (12 000 km) or 12 months
without an oil and filter change.
Remember to reset the Oil Life System whenever the oil
is changed. For more information, seeChange Engine
Oil Light on page 3-39.

(11)= Inspect rear axle air shift motor for fluid leaks.
Remove plug to check fluid level. Inspect air lines
and hoses for proper hook-up, binding, leaks, etc.
Inspect at 1,000 miles (1 600 km) and 22,500 miles
(36 000 km) and then every 22,500 miles (36 000 km)
thereafter.
(12)= Chassis Lubrication Service: Lubricate all grease
fittings in front suspension, front axle and steering
linkage. DO NOT lubricate kingpin bushings with air
pressure equipment; instead, use a hand grease gun to
ensure complete purge and eliminate sealer cap
distortion. Front axle tie rod ends, both upper and lower
kingpin fittings and both steering linkage relay rod
ends should be greased with the vehicle loaded on the
ground and wheels turned straight ahead, NOT with
the vehicle on a hoist. Apply kingpin bushing lubricant to
both upper and lower kingpin grease fittings until new
lubricant purges from between the upper shim pack and
thrust bearing. Lubricate transmission and shift
linkage, hood latches and hood hinges, parking brake
lever pivot, clevis pins and linkage, disc brake caliper
rails, clutch linkage and release bearing (if equipped),
bearing pads, propshaft universal joints, brake camshaft
bracket, slack adjusters, pedal shaft, clutch cross
shaft, clutch pedal springs and clutch cable bushing at
transmission. Lubricate suspension, axle and steeringlinkage more often when operating under dusty or
muddy conditions and in excessive off-road use.
Frequently power-washed vehicles will require more
frequent lubrication.
(13)= Check steering system:
•Look for damaged, loose or missing parts. Inspect
the steering linkage relay rod and tie rod ends for
looseness or lack of lubricant. Also look for
parts showing signs of wear or lack of lubrication.
Replace parts as needed. Also check steering gear
mounting bolts, pitman arm nut, gear housing
upper cover and side cover attaching bolts, steering
column mounting bolts and cardan joint clamp
bolts; tighten if necessary. (See service manual.)
•Inspect power steering hoses, tubes and fittings for
leaks. Hoses and lines must not be twisted, kinked
or tightly bent. Make sure clips, clamps, supporting
tubes and hoses are in place and properly
secured.
•Check steering gear for leakage around pitman
shaft and housing. If leakage is evident (lubricant
oozing out, not just oily film), leak should be
corrected immediately.
