Should an axle assembly require replacement component
parts, it is recommended that Spicer Heavy Axle Service
Parts be used. Spicer Heavy Axle Service Parts are
manufactured under the same rigid specification as are
original equipment axle components. This assures the
customer who uses genuine Spicer service parts, maxi-
mum reliability for a Spicer Heavy Axle assembly. They
may be obtained through your vehicle manufacturer. The use of non-original Spicer service parts may cause
premature component failure and may void the warranty.
The items included in this book are currently being
offered as service parts at the time of printing. The part
