Servicing bar pin end bushings used on Hendrickson equalizing beam tandem truck suspensions requires the use of special tooling. OTC�s 1757 adapter set is used with the beam removed from the truck, and in conjunction with OTC- 51100 press plate and a 100-ton hydraulic shop press.
The OTC-1757 set, which replaces the OTC-1747 set, includes an adapter for installing bushings in older forged beams as well as the fabricated beams introduced in 1999.
