warning in the instrument panel when fluid level falls below normal.
FRONT AXLE CRAMP ANGLE
The chassis shall have a front axle cramp angle of 48 degrees to the left and 44 degrees to the right.
POWER STEERING GEAR
The power steering gear shall be a TRW model TAS 65 with an assist cylinder.
CHASSIS ALIGNMENT
The chassis frame rails shall be measured to insure the length is correct and cross checked to make sure they run parallel

to provide the rugged dependability needed to stand up to the industry’s demands. The axle shall include rectangular
shaped, hot-formed housings for extra strength and rigidity. The axles shall also include torsion flow axle shafts that
feature a surface hardness which resists fatigue and a resilient core which absorbs shock. There shall be unitized pinion
seals within the axle helping to prevent leakage and harmful road contaminants from entering the axle components. The
