GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The rear axle is of the welded construction with a box-shaped cross section, consisting of an axle, center arm, tie
rods and knuckles. The rear axle supports with bushings fitted thereto are fitted into the front and rear support pins of the
axle body and bolted to the rear frame, so that the rear axle can be cradled around the support pins.
At each end of the axle is a knuckle, which turns right and left on the king pin. The rear wheel hub is installed on
the knuckle spindle with two tapered roller bearings, and the wheel is installed on the hub with hub bolts and nuts. The
king pin side tapered roller bearing has a single-sided seal to secure grease tightness between the hub and knuckle. The
king pin and center arm have grease nipples through which grease is applied. Application of grease at specified intervals
will prevent premature failure caused by the lack of grease.
