Problem

Contact of the tooth tip, between the bevel gear and pinion, may result in pitting and spalling of the pinion teeth on certain 789 Trucks. A new differential gear group design provides tip relief for the pinion and bevel gear which increases the service life of the differential and bevel gear group.

Affected Product
Model & Identification Number

789 (9ZC1-489)

Parts Needed

1 - 5P4539 Cone
1 - 5P4540 Cup
1 - 6V7714 Cone
1 - 6V7715 Cup
1 - 8X7231 Gear Gp.

Action Required

If pieces of the pinion gear teeth are found on the magnetic plug, remove and disassemble the differential group. Rebuild the differential group using a new 8X7231 Gear Group and new pinion bearings.

If the differential group is removed for any other reason, and hard line contact (pitting/spalling) is seen on the pinion gear, install the new 8X7231 Gear Group. If no pitting or spalling is seen, reuse the original gear group.

Service Claim Allowances

NOTE: This is a 34-hour job.

Parts Disposition

Handle the parts in accordance with your Warranty Bulletin on warranty parts handling.
