## What is wrong

THE DRIVESHAFT TO THE FRONT DRIVING AXLE IS SECURED TO A BRACKET USING TWO PILLOW BLOCKS. THESE BLOCKS ARE OF INSUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO SUPPORT THE DRIVESHAFT AND COULD FAIL.


## What can happen

PILLOW BLOCK FAILURE ALLOWS THE DRIVELINE \(JACKSHAFT\)TO DROP DOWN ONTO THE ROADWAY AND CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD TO OTHER VEHICLES.


## The remedy

MACK WILL INSTALL THICKER PILLOW BLOCKS AND SUPPORT U\-BOLTS.
