2. STABILISERS, TORQUE RODS AND LEAF SUSPENSION

2.1 GENERAL

Minimum dimensions of wearing plates
If one of the dimensions of the wearing plates, on 

which the spring assembly rests, is smaller than 

indicated by the dotted line in the opposite 

drawing, the wearing plates must be replaced.

Alignment plate/tandem axle spring clearance
If applicable, the clearance between the align-

ment plate and the tandem axle is: 1.5 - 2.5 mm.

2.2 TIGHTENING TORQUES

The tightening torques stated in this section are 

different from the standard tightening torques 

stated in the overview of the standard tightening 

torques. The other threaded connections not 

specified must therefore be tightened to the 

torque stated in the overview of standard 

tightening torques.

When attachment bolts and nuts are replaced, it 

is important that - unless stated otherwise - these 

bolts and nuts are of exactly the same length and 

property class as those removed.
