Refer to Figure 1 for the following procedure.
1.
Inspect the RH and LH axle pivot brackets and fasteners attaching the front axle to the # 1 frame crossmember.
2.
If the horizontal axle pivot bracket fasteners are not loose, perform normal diagnostic as outlined in the appropriate F-Series Body/Chassis Service
Manual, Section 04-00, and TSB Article 96-4-11.
3.
If the horizontal pivot bracket fasteners are loose and the axle pivot and crossmember have not been damaged, proceed to Step 5.
4.
If the bracket and/or crossmember holes have been elongated, inspect the holes in the crossmember. If any of the holes are greater than 16 mm
(5/8"), the frame must be replaced. If the crossmember holes are 16 mm (5/8") or less, replace the axle pivot bracket(s) and continue with the

the joint. Torque the nut to 180 N.m (133 lb-ft).
