    Service Brakes, Air / Slack Adjusters / Automatic

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    On certain trailers equipped with a specific combination of reyco suspension, eaton drive axle, and bendix slack adjusters, the failure of a drive axle slack adjuster to automatically adjust as required to compensate for brake wear, will cause an out of adjustment condition. If this condition occurs and is not identified and corrected through normal inspections and maintenance, the slack adjuster will over-rotate and may contact the suspension lower spring saddle.

    If this occurs, braking performance will be inhibited, increasing the risk of a crash without warning.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Crane carrier will supply, at no charge, gunite slack adjusters and installation instructions to replace the existing bendix slack adjusters on the drive axle. The installing facility will be reimbursed by crane for one (1) hour labor per vehicle at their posted labor rate. Owner notification began on june 10, 2003. Owners should contact crane at 1-918-832-7305.
