GENUINE SPICER SERVICE PARTS
Should an axle assembly require replacement compo-
nent 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,
maximum reliability for a Spicer Heavy Axle assembly.
They may be obtained through your vehicle manufac- turer. 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 numbers and illustrations are provided specifically
for reference purposes only. Therefore, Spicer reserves
the right to update this manual without notice or
liability.
