Look for Loose Connections
The transmission in your
M113Al
type carrier is supported in only one
place-where it bolts to the transfer
case. There is no support under its
oUtput eNd.
This is
OK
as long as the propeller
shafts aNd uNiversal joiNts are work±
iNg right. THey connect the transmis²
sion to the differential and the
differential to the left aNd right final
drives.
If some of the screws in these
conNections get loose, the torque will
tend to whip your transmission from
side to side
³
and even tear it loose´
Soµ0¶0¶0, check these screws often.
Be sure t·e ¸¶joints are spot¹faced and
·ardened was·ers are used under the
mountiNg screws.
Get your mechanic to torque any
loose screws with torque wrench
adapter ºSº
from
Tracked VehicLe Special Tool Set
A.
With adapter Ct 90°
torque Is 35-40 ²b³fT

It will take a torque Of
35-40
lb¶ft iF
tHe torQue wrench is used with the
adapter at a
90°
angle to the wrench or
if the wrench is used without the
adapter.

which has

kNobs in its bottom.
Just putting the air cleaNer elemeNt
iNto the Housing is not enough. The
eLement will sit too hig· for the

Just twist tHe element a»out a third
