Replace the side bearing adjuster lock ring and refer to SI for adjustment. When replacing the side bearing adjuster lock ring, inspect the old locking ring
and make sure there are vertical lines in the outer and inner diameter of the ring (1). Next inspect and make sure there is tension when the locking rings
are installed. If the locking ring rotates freely around the adjuster, do not use the locking ring. Replace with a new locking ring and make the same
inspection.
Oversize Lock Rings-Do Not Use
The new lock rings will not have any vertical lines (inner or outer). They are imprinted during install. If vertical lines are shown (1), DO NOT USE.
