M
echanics, the rubber boot, NSN 2530-01-192-4315, that covers the transfer case
shift cable on the M1074A1 and M1075A1 PLS is deteriorating before it should.
As it weakens, the boot splits open
between its folds. That allows dirt,
debris and water to jam and corrode
the shift cable.
If your truck is under warranty, go
through the warranty process to get a
replacement boot.
Out of warranty? No problem.
Just send an email to Oshkosh at:
defensecampaigns@
defense.oshkoshcorp.com
In the email, include a good shipping address. They’ll send you a free replacement
boot along with installation instructions.
M
echanics, the vent line on the M-ATV’s rear brake chamber just doesn’t cut the
mustard. It’s thin, Fimsy and likely to crimp when put in place.
Now there’s a more durable vent line kit, NSN 4710-01-313-2222, that can handle
the job. The new kit includes a straight vent line tube and two connector elbows for
both of the vehicle’s rear brake chambers. You’ll need to cut the tube to ±t.
