DESCRIPTION
4-44.
a. General. The brake drums and wheels are mounted on the hubs. Each hub is
mounted on the spindle of its axle on two tapered roller bearings. The wheels are
mounted on the hub with ten wheel studs and lug nuts. Lug nuts must be turned in
the opposite direction to the normal rotation of the wheel to be loosened or
removed. The wheel bearings are removable for cleaning, inspection and lubrication.
A grease seal (and seal ring on the M871A1) is fitted behind the inner bearing to
protect brake linings from lubricant.
b. Brake Drums. The brake drum (1, fig. 4-41) is attached to the hub (2) with
ten nuts and studs. A hub cap (3) and gasket, fastened by six screws and washers of
the center of the hub, excludes moisture and dirt.
c. Tires. Tires are military pneumatic type, cross country non-directional
tread design, size 11.00 X 20, 12-ply rating with controlled bead. The tires are
equipped with tubes and continuous flaps.
