| Summary of Issue | An Ohio inspector stopped a CMV for an inspection and discovered a missing retainer bolt at the universal joint. The OOSC addresses bearing cap bolts in section 4.b.(3) that are loose or missing but does not address retainer bolts. Photos are attached to distinguish the difference between a bearing cap bolt and a retainer bolt. |
| Justification or Need | Important. |
| Request for Action | Should a missing or loose retainer bolt in the universal joint be added to the OOSC? |
