5.5.2 Installation Instructions:
1. Prior to installation of these components, it is necessary to modify the shoulder harness
"comfort clip". Reference Figure 5-18. Using a 5/8-in.-diameter drill bit or tapered reamer,
enlarge the existing mounting hole on the comfort clip from the current diameter (0.45 in.)
to a new diameter of 5/8 in.
2. Install bushing #991 into the outboard facing surface of side panel, #213. Install bushing
#992 into the inboard facing side of the side panel, #213 (see Figure 5-18). Note that the
large-diameter end of #992 is inserted into the panel and the small diameter end faces
away from the panel. These bushings are an interference fit and may require the use of a
mallet or press.
3. Position the side panel (#213) in the cab against the interior cab wall as shown in
Figure 5-18. Place washer 31 on fastener 18. Insert fastener 18 through the shoulder belt
comfort clip, through the shoulder belt anchor fitting, and through bushings #991 and
#992. Adjust the position of the side panel until the bolt aligns with the associated hole in
the cab side wall. Once aligned, screw fastener 18 in sufficiently to retain the side panel,
but do not tighten it at this time.
4. Place bracket #952 against the floor panel and the side panel as shown in Figure 5-19.
Install the bolts and washers (6 and 26) through the bracket to the side wall.
5. Install one bolt and washers (19 and 31) and one bolt and washers (3 and 27) through the
bracket to the floor panel. Note that the lower seat belt anchor should also be re-secured
at this point as well.
6. Install the A-Pillar panel as shown in Figure 5-18. The A-Pillar armor panel fits between
the outboard end of the instrument panel and the inside surface of the cab A-pillar. Install
bolts and washers in every other hole as shown. It may be necessary to adjust the
position of this panel slightly during the installation of the toe panels; thus, it is
recommended that the bolts not be fully tightened at this time.
