Front Suspension Check
p4 mm 32.01
Warning: Do not replace individual
leaves of a damaged leaf spring assembly; replace the complete spring
assembly. Visible damage (cracks or breaks) to one leaf causes hidden
damage to other leaves. Replacement of only the visibly damaged part(s)
is no assurance that the spring is safe. On front spring assemblies,
if cracks or breaks exist in the two top leaves, a loss of vehicle
control could occur. Failure to replace a damaged spring assembly
could cause an accident resulting in property damage, serious personal
injury, or death.
Inspect the front spring assemblies for cracked, broken, or abnormally bent leaves. If any of these conditions exist, replace the spring assembly; see of the New Cascadia™ Workshop Manual.
Inspect the spring bushings for wear or other damage. If any of these conditions exist, replace the damaged bushings.
Note:
