## Discrepancy

OIL LINE BETWEEN TRANSMISSION AND FREE WHEEL UNIT WAS IMPROPERLY CLAMPED CAUSING THE HOSE TO CONTACT THE DIVESHAFT.  DURING INSTALLATION OF THE NEW HOSE ASSY IT WAS NOTED THAT THE PN CALLED OUT FOR IN THE DRAWINGS AND THE MFG PARTS MANUAL IS APPROX 1 INCH TO SHORT TO INSTALL THE CLAPS IN THE PROPER POSITIONS. THE PN IN THE DRAWINGS IS 70-010G0000D270. THE MFG SHOWS AN ALTERNATE PN OF 70-061G000D270. THIS WAS THE PN OF THE NEW HOSE INSTALLED.
