  1. Gear box (other than rack and pinion) (steering)

    NHTSA 93V142001 Reported 336 vehicles potentially affected THOMAS BUILT BUSES, INC.

    The cap screws that hold the intermediate steering linkages onto the input and output shafts of the 90 degree steering gear box were improperly torqued, and can separate from the linkage connections. Also, the keys were not installed in the keyways of the steering linkage and the steering box shaft.

    Remedy: Remove all fasteners connecting the steering gear box input and output shafts to the intermediate linkages and reassemble with new keys, cap screws, washers, and nuts.

    Model years: 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993
