b. When vehicle or engine is placed in storage other than administrative storage, service the crankcase

with OE/HDO 15W40 engine oil. Note that MIL-PRF-2104 engine oil is an operational lubricant and may

be used until the initial scheduled oil change after reactivation of the vehicle or engine. For administrative

storage, engine oil conforming to the specification and grade established in Table 1, Fluid Capacities and

Lubricant Requirements, should be used.

7. FUEL/WATER SEPARATOR

Replace fuel filter every 6,000 miles (9,654 kilometers) or six months, whichever occurs first.

8. REAR SPRING SEAT BUSHINGS OR BEARINGS

a. Every 3,000 miles (4,827 km) or semiannually, whichever occurs first, remove bearing cap and tighten

bearing adjusting nut in accordance with TM 9-2320-361-20. Install cap loosely, and lubricate bearings by

removing pipe plug in bottom of spring seat and installing fitting. Lubricate with GAA grease through fitting

until lubricant appears around cap. Remove fitting, and reinstall pipe plug.

b. Every 6,000 miles (9,654 km), or annually, whichever occurs first, remove, clean, and inspect bearings.

Reinstall bearings, tighten adjusting nuts and locknuts, and lubricate bearings as described in step a. above.

9. TRANSMISSION

a. Check oil level of automatic transmission using the following procedure:

(1) Allow engine to idle. Shift transmission to neutral and apply parking brake.

(2) Withdraw dipstick slowly to prevent a false reading. If transmission oil temperature gauge reads

160F (71C) or below, level on dipstick should show between marks designated for normal run. If

transmission oil temperature is above 160F (71C), allow transmission oil to cool.

CAUTION

Do not overfill transmission. Internal transmission component damage

will result.

(3) If transmission oil level is low, add oil through filler tube. Return dipstick to filler tube, tighten

dipstick handle, and wipe away any spilled oil.

b. When AOAP laboratory support is not available, change oil every 24,000 miles (38,616 km) or

24 months, whichever occurs first.

1O. WINCH HYDRAULIC OIL RESERVOIR

Every 12,000 miles (19,308 km) or 12 months, whichever occurs first, remove drainplug from reservoir and

drain oil. Always install drainplug after draining. Refill reservoir to middle of sight glass.

11. FRONT WHEEL UNIVERSAL JOINTS

Every 12,000 miles (19,308 km) or annually, whichever occurs first, remove plug from universal joint

housing, fill to level of plug opening, and reinstall plug. Remove plugs on each side of steering knuckle, and

fill to level of plug opening through upper and lower steering knuckle bearings. Do not disassemble.

12. WHEEL BEARINGS

Every 6,000 miles (9,654 km) or six months, whichever occurs first, remove, clean, dry, repack, and install
