| Inspection: Valve Body |
| |
|
Note:
Do not remove separator plate unless valve bodies are full of
junk.
Be careful not to allow separator plate to sag in front as this will allow check balls to fall out of their respective
worm tracks.
Use one of the retaining plate bolts to hold the separator plate up.
Always replace gasket between valve bodies and separator plate. |
| 1. Visually inspect all valve body bores for scoring and wear. |
| 2. Test free movement of dry plungers/valves in bores. |
3. There are kits available to repair common problems such as:
Accumulator Valve Body Modulator Sleeve and Plunger. |
|
| |
| Pulling Trailers / Heavy Loads: |
|
| Install a large high quality External Oil Cooler in front of radiator. |

| 2. Check rollers and contact faces on races for scoring / flat spots. |
| 3. Make sure they rotate counter clockwise and are smooth when dry and lubricated. |
|
| |
