BULLETIN NO. 426


DATE: AUGUST, 1991


SUBJECT: FRONT STRUT LOCATING TABS

MODELS: ALL 405 VEHICLES


As of December, 1990 production, the method for locating the front struts in the steering knuckle has been revised.





The original type used a welded-on locating tab (1). The new type uses three embossments (2) to set the depth of the strut in the knuckle and a pin (3) to engage the slot (4) in the steering knuckle.


The new style strut is fully interchangeable with the original type and may be used on older vehicles with no modification.
