Stabilator Cover for UH-60 and AH-64
On pages 38-39 of PS 659 (July 07), we told you to
contact the CA AVCRAD to make covers to protect
your helicopter stabilators from damage. However, the
AVCRAD is not the supplier of the cover to the Army
community. Units need to contract locally to have the
cover made or make the cover themselves with the
instructions on
pages 38 and 39 of PS 659
.

M809
Wheel Bearings
New synthetic GAA lasts longer
than the old stuff. That means you
don’t have to repack wheel bearings
annually on M809-series 5-ton trucks.
The service interval is now changed
to every 12,000 miles or 36 months.
Make a note until the vehicle’s lube
order is updated.
The
intermediate
and
rear
axles
are
manufactured by Axle Tech or Arvin Meritor. You
can use axles made by either manufacturer to
replace an entire axle on the vehicle. However,
do
not
cannibalize/exchange
repair
parts
between the axle manufacturers. The parts
are not interchangeable. Axle Tech parts will
not work on Arvin Meritor axles, nor will Arvin
Meritor parts work on Axle Tech axles.

M915A3/A4 Vent
Window Knobs
Vent window knobs on M915A3- and
A4-series tractor trucks are known
to strip out. Forget about ordering
the vent window assembly in TM
9-2320-302-24P and TM 9-2320-303-
24P just to replace a busted knob.
Instead, order the left knob with
PN 197LEXC/M166-75L and the right
one with PN 196REXC/M166-75R.
Use CAGE code 64678 with these
part numbers on a DD Form 1348-6
when ordering the knobs.
