Removal Procedure

The door strikers are mounted on the door opening's rear pillar. The bolts pass through a hole into a threaded plate behind the pillar. The lock cam, or the arm, of the locking mechanism engages and snaps around the striker bolt. In this position, the locking mechanism secures the cab door.

The striker bolt position is not adjustable.

Installation Procedure


    Object Number: 348470  Size: SH
  1. Install the striker into the door pillar.
  2. Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  3. Secure the bolts.
  4. Tighten
    Tighten the striker bolts to 24 N·m (18 lb ft).
