Special applications may warrant a setting based on experience with the
type of tire operating loads and conditions. Radial tires are more
sensitive to toe-in setting than bias ply tires. While not insensitive to
vehicle alignment, fine tuning school bus alignment to line-haul truck
standards does not drastically improve tire tread life.
Rear Axle
Regular inspections should include:
•checking for proper tightness of axle mounting U-bolt nuts, attaching
or mounting bolts and nuts. SeeSpring U-bolt checkslater in this
chapter.
•checking the axle for damage, binding, worn parts and adequate
lubrication.
NoSpin Detroit Locker Positive Locking Differential
Vehicles equipped with this type differential have the operator’s manual
supplied with the vehicle. See that manual for maintenance inspections.

Air Brakes
WARNING:Do not manually adjust the automatic slack adjusters
to correct excessive push rod stroke as it may result in reduced
brake effectiveness and a vehicle crash. Excessive push rod stroke
indicates that a problem exists with the automatic adjuster, with the
installation of the adjuster, or with foundation brake components that
manual adjustment does not remedy. Seek service from a qualified
facility for excessive push rod stroke.
Inspection and adjustment:Establish a regular schedule for periodic
cleaning, lubrication and adjustment inspection based on vehicle use.
Exact maintenance intervals are difficult to predetermine since vehicles
are used in a wide variety of applications and conditions. If you are
uncertain of the proper schedule for your vehicle, contact your dealer.
Regular inspections should include:
•periodic checking (every service interval) of push rod travel or brake
adjustment. This is essential for effective braking. Brake chamber
push rods on original equipment chambers now incorporate an orange
paint marker near the base of the push rod as a stroke indicator to
aid in adjustment checks. If the push rod is clean and the brakes are
out of adjustment, the orange marker can be seen protruding from
the chamber when the brakes are applied.
•checking the brake lining (every service interval). When brake lining
or blocks are worn to within 1/16th inch (1.6 millimeters) of rivets,
replace the brake linings. This inspection or adjustment should only
be performed by a qualified technician and must be in accordance
with instructions provided by the service manual.
Do not back off or disconnect the front brakes so that they are less
effective, letting the rear brakes do all the stopping of the vehicle. Do
not overlook the brakes on the trailer either. Brake condition on the
trailer is just as important as the tractor. Proper brake balance on trucks
and tractor-trailers is essential for effective braking.
Once a year, the entire brake system must be inspected:
•Rubber components for deterioration. These components should be
inspected by a qualified technician and replaced as necessary.
Replacement intervals vary according to the severity and length of
vehicle service.
•Condition of brake drums, brake chambers and slack adjusters.
•System for air leaks.
•Hose or pipes for rust, damage and deterioration.
•Operation of service and parking brakes.

Steering System
WARNING:Failure to maintain the steering system in proper
condition can cause reduced steering ability resulting in property
damage, personal injury or death.
Note:Have any steering problems immediately corrected by a qualified
service technician.
Ask your service technician to examine the steering mechanism. Only
minor adjustments may be necessary. Regular inspections should include:
•checking the tie rod, drag link end clamp bolts and ball joints for
proper tightness.
•checking for installation and spread of cotter pins and tightness of
nuts at both ends of the tie rod and drag link.
•checking that the pitman arm (steering arm at steering gear)
mounting is tight and locked. Check system for leaks or hose chafing.
Repair immediately, if necessary.
•maintaining proper steering gear and power steering pump lubricant
levels.
•checking steering column joint bolts and steering linkage, particularly
for body-to-chassis clearance.
Steering Column Joint Bolts
As a good maintenance practice, it is recommended that steering column
joint bolts be checked for tightness every 60000 miles (96000 kilometers)
or annually, whichever occurs first. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Hydraulic System
Whenever the power steering’s hydraulic system has been drained and
refilled for any reason, air must be bled from the system before returning
the vehicle to service. Failure to properly bleed the hydraulic system can
result in degradation of power system performance.
Consult your dealer who is aware of the proper procedures for filling and
bleeding the system.
