Effective with interim 1985, the interior cab reinforcement for the upper mounting of the vertical exhaust has been improved (Figure No. 1 shows a typical vertical exhause). This change eliminates the two reinforcements previously used and replaces them with a single bracket, P/N 15530183. Figure No. 2 shows the bracket installed, which can be accessed through the right hand speaker cover. The new part is a direct replacement for the former part, and should be used if bracket replacement is necessary.
General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
