SECTION 2
Product Description
瀚瑞森 HUV 270t is a heavy-duty rubber vocational suspension designed for durabil‑
ity, weight savings, and outstanding ride quality. Designed for heavy‑duty applications,
瀚瑞森 HUV 270t offers a considerable weight savings versus competitive suspensions for
increased payload. The system offers a unique balance of superior ride quality and increas‑
ing roll stiffness as the load increases. Rubber shear springs carry a majority of the vertical
load in the empty condition, resulting in a soft ride. As the load increases, the progressive rate
springs deflect more to carry a greater proportion of the load, increasing the stiffness of the
suspension without causing an abrupt change in ride characteristics.
■■
Equalizing beams — Distribute load equally between axles to improve stability and
handling. Offer up to 445 mm of diagonal articulation for outstanding mobility and
traction.
■■
Saddle — Lightweight design helps to increase payload, while offering a considerable
weight savings versus competitive suspensions.
■■
Frame hangers — Optimized design to balance durability and weight savings.
■■
Rubber shear springs — Primary springs in unloaded condition, providing superb
ride quality. React to longitudinal loads during braking and accelerating for minimal
displacement.
■■
Progressive rate springs — Designed to balance empty ride quality and loaded stabil‑
ity. Stiffness of progressive rate spring increases as load increases, providing a unique
balance of empty ride quality and loaded stability.
REDUCED MAINTENANCE
Reduce maintenance costs and help increase uptime of your vehicle:
Introduction
■■
Superior ride results in reduced road shock and vibration to the vehicle, which contrib‑
utes to longer service life of the cab, chassis and body equipment
■■
No lubrication requirements
■■
Rubber shear springs remain in constant compression for long component life
■■
Rubber progressive rate springs provide long service life and easy replacement
■■
Bar pin end bushings extend service life and reduce end bushing replacement time

■■
Cuts or splits in the rubber of over 50 mm in length and an average depth of 13 mm
should be considered as possible causes for replacement. A certain amount of gradual
breakup of the rubber surface is normal. The most probable areas for potential cuts,
splits, or wear are shown in Figure 6-6 as “/ / / / / / /.”
■■
Bonding separation of the rubber from the bonded rate plate surface to a maximum
depth of approximately 13 mm is acceptable, see Figure 6-6. If the bonding separation
depth is 13 mm or more, the effected progressive rate spring requires replacement as
outlined in the Component Replacement Section of this publication.
Saddle Cap Bolt Fasteners
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION ENSURE THAT ALL RESIDUAL LOCTITE MATERIAL IS REMOVED FROM THE
Threaded BORES of THE saddle, AND NEW LOCTITE 262 OR EQUIVALENT IS APPLIED TO HELP
ENSURE THAT THE BOLTS SUSTAIN THE PROPER TORQUE REQUIREMENT. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN
CAUSE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL RESULTING IN PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
The saddles are attached to the center bushings of each equalizing beam with two
(2) saddle caps. Each saddle cap uses two (2) bolts to clamp the center bushing
inner metal to the saddle. The saddle caps must be installed so that there is an
even gap between the saddle caps and the base of the saddle as shown in Figure
6-7. If they are not installed evenly the saddle legs could become deformed,
resulting in bent bolts or damaged saddles.

Cross Tube
The 瀚瑞森 HUV 270t cross tube connects the two (2) equalizing beams through the
equalizing beam’s center bushings, see Figure 6‑9. The cross tube has clearance to float
side-to-side in the center bushings. The length of the cross tube will allow side-to-side
movement of approximately 50 mm. For this reason, the cross tube may appear polished or
have missing paint at each end where it enters into the center bushings, this ­is normal. DO
NOT grease the cross tube or the center bushing.
■■
Inspect the overall condition of the cross tube for dents, dings, or bent condition.

THE SADDLES ARE ATTACHED TO THE CENTER BUSHINGS OF EACH EQUALIZING BEAM WITH TWO
(2) SADDLE CAPS. EACH SADDLE CAP USES TWO (2) BOLTS TO CLAMP THE CENTER BUSHING
INNER METAL TO THE SADDLE. THE SADDLE CAPS MUST BE INSTALLED SO THERE IS AN EVEN
GAP BETWEEN THE SADDLE CAPS AND THE BASE OF THE SADDLE AS SHOWN IN FIGURE 8-10. IF
THEY ARE NOT INSTALLED EVENLY THE SADDLE LEGS COULD BECOME DEFORMED, RESULTING
IN BENT BOLTS OR DAMAGED SADDLES.
Figure 8-10
5. Remove the frame supports and lower the frame of the vehicle being careful to
engage the saddles on the equalizing beam’s center bushings.
PRIOR TO SADDLE CAP BOLT INSTALLATION, ENSURE THAT ALL RESIDUAL LOCTITE MATERIAL
IS REMOVED FROM THE THREADED BORES OF THE SADDLE, AND NEW LOCTITE 262 OR
EQUIVALENT IS APPLIED TO HELP ENSURE THAT THE BOLTS SUSTAIN THE PROPER TORQUE
REQUIREMENT. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL RESULTING IN
PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Figure 8-11
6. Apply Loctite 262 to the

Center Bushing
Before attempting to remove the equalizing beam center bushings, inspect the inside face of
each equalizing beam center hub. If the outer metal of the center bushing is worn, the edge
may have mushroomed over the face of the beam hub. This material must be removed with
a chisel or disc sander before the tooling adapters can be positioned for bushing removal.
You will need
■■
Vertical shop press with a capacity of at least 45 metric tonnes.
■■
Center Bushing Service Kit, see Parts List Section of this publication.
■■
Center Bushing Tool – Refer to the Special Tools Section of this publication for the kit
necessary to remove and install 瀚瑞森 HUV 270t rubber center bushings.
■■
Bar Pin End Bushing Receiving Tool – The receiving tool is a shop made tool which
completely supports the beam hub being serviced and is tall enough to receive the
bushing as it is being pressed in or out.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove the equalizing beam assembly from the vehicle. Follow the equalizing beam
disassembly procedure in this section.
Do not use a cutting torch to remove any fasteners or bushings. The use of heat
on suspension components will adversely affect the strength of these parts. A
component damaged in this manner can result in the loss of vehicle control and
possible personal injury or property damage.
2. Place the equalizing beam assembly in a shop press with the center hub firmly sup‑
ported on the receiving tool.
3. Install the center bushing removal tool centered on the center bushing.
4. Push directly on center bushing removal tool until the center bushing is pressed out of
the equalizing beam bore.
5. Inspect beam bores.
INSPECTION
After removing the center bushings, thoroughly inspect the beam bores. If damaged from
center bushing removal, replace with a new equalizing beam. DO NOT perform a center
bushing replacement or other service procedure on an equalizing beam that has been
damaged.
Failure to replace an equalizing beam that has been damaged from center bushing
removal can result in the failure of that equalizing beam, leading to loss of
vehicle control and possible personal injury or property damage.
When installing rubber center bushings the following steps will minimize the chance of
damaging a new bushing:
1. Clean the bores of the equalizing beams with emery cloth, removing any nicks or
metal buildup from bushing removal.
2. Measure the inside diameter of the equalizing beam’s center bore and the center
bushing’s outside diameter. Take any two readings at 90 degrees in the same plane,
see Figure 8‑12, maximum ovality 0.254 mm. If either component is not within the
specified range, replacement is required.

Figure 8-12
The specification for the inside
diameter of the equalizing beam’s
center bore is 120.50 mm /
120.29 mm
3. The equalizing beam bore
may have a more substantial
lead-in chamfer at one end
of the bore than the other.
Take advantage of the larger
chamfer by pressing in the new center bushing from this end.
4. Support the beam squarely at the bore area to avoid distortion of the beam bore or
bending of the beam.
5. Lubricate the outer diameter (O.D.) of the center bushing and the inner diameter (I.D.)
of the beam bore with an NLGI#2 – EP (Extreme Pressure) lithium base grease.
6. Make sure the bushing is square to the equalizing beam bore and press the bushing
into beam.
ASSEMBLY
Figure 8-13
1. Place the equalizing beam in
a shop press on the receiving
tool or press. Support the beam
squarely at the bore area to avoid
distortion of the beam bore or
bending of the beam.
2. Lubricate the equalizing beam
bore and the equalizing beam
center bushing outer metal
sleeve with an NLGI #2 – EP
(Extreme Pressure) grease.
NOTE
The center bushing must be square
with the equalizing beam end hub
before pressing the center bushing
into the beam. Center bushings pressed in at an angle will damage the end bushing and
the equalizing beam.
3. Install the center bushing installation tool and press in the new center bushing until
the outer metal sleeve is centered in the equalizing beam bore, see Figure 8-13.
4. Install the equalizing beam assembly to the vehicle. Follow the equalizing beam
installation procedure in this section.

When removing and installing bushings in the equalizing beams, follow the
procedures outlined in this publication. Do not use a cutting torch to remove the
bushing outer metals pressed in the beam bores or fasteners. Welding, torching
or attaching material to the equalizing beam must never be performed. The use of
heat CAN adversely affect the strength of the equalizing beams.
DISCARD USED FASTENERS. ALWAYS USE NEW FASTENERS TO COMPLETE A REPAIR. FAILURE TO
DO SO COULD RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE PART OR MATING PARTS, LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL,
PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
NOTE
Hendrickson recommends the use of Class 10.9 bolts, hardened washers, and Class 10
locknuts. Hardened washers are not necessary when flange head fasteners are used.
Figure 8-14
Bushing Removal
1. Remove equalizing beam assembly from vehicle as
detailed in the equalizing beam disassembly instruc‑
tions in this section.
2. Place the equalizing beam in the shop press with the
beam end hub squarely supported on the receiving tool.
3. Press on the end bushing inner metal, see Figure 8‑14,
of the end bushing until the inner metal is flush with the
top of the beam end hub. This will dislodge the confine‑
ment washer and move the bushing rubber away from the outer metal of the bushing
so the removal tool can be installed.
4. Center the bushing removal tool directly on the bushing’s outer metal and press the
bushing out of the beam end hub.
5. After removing the equalizing beam bushings, thoroughly inspect each beam bore.
INSPECTION
After removing the bar pin end bushings, thoroughly inspect the beam bores. If the
equalizing beam is damaged from end bushing removal, replacement of the equalizing
beam is required, replace with a new equalizing beam. DO NOT perform a end bushing
replacement or other service procedure on an equalizing beam that has been damaged.
Failure to replace an equalizing beam that has been damaged from end bushing
removal can result in the failure of that equalizing beam, leading to loss of
vehicle control and possible personal injury or property damage.
When installing bar pin end bushings the following steps will minimize the chance of ruin‑
ing a new bushing:
1. Clean the bores of the equalizing beams with emery cloth or hone, removing any
nicks or metal buildup from bushing removal.
2. Measure the equalizing beam end hub bore inner diameter and the bushing outside diam‑
eter. If components are not within the specified range, replacement is required.
Figure 8-15
The Hendrickson specification for the equal‑
izing beam end hub bore diameter is 110.97
mm / 110.77 mm, see Figure 8-15.
3. The equalizing beam bore may have
a more substantial lead chamfer at
one end of the bore than the other.
Take advantage of the larger chamfer
by pressing in the new center bushing
from this end.
4. Support the beam squarely at the bore area to avoid distortion of the beam bore or
bending of the beam.

5. Lubricate the outer metal of the bar pin end bushing and the inner diameter of the
beam end hub with an NLGI #2 – EP (Extreme Pressure) lithium base grease.
6. Make sure the bushing is square to the beam bore and press the bushing into beam.
NOTE
Always use the bushing’s outer metal for pressing operations, unless otherwise instructed.
Pressing on the bushings inner metal may damage the bushing requiring bushing
replacement.
End Bushing Installation
1. Place the equalizing beam in a shop press with the end hub, see Figure 8-16 and
8-28, squarely supported on the receiving tool.
2. Install the end bushing installation tool (refer to Special Tools Section of this publica‑
tion) on the new end bushing as shown in Figure 8‑17. Tighten the through bolt until
the two halves of the tool touch. The installation tool compresses the rubber between
the inner and outer metal of the bushing to allow press force to be transmitted only to
the outer metal of the bushing.

3. Lubricate the equalizing beam end hub inside diameter AND the bar pin end bush‑
ing’s outer metal with a heavy layer of NLGI #2 – EP (Extreme Pressure) lithium base
grease, see Figure 8-16.
4. Position the equalizing beam end bushing and installation tool on the end hub. Verify
the bolt holes in the end bushing are in line with the beam axis, see Figure 8-17.
NOTE
The end bushing must be square with the equalizing beam end hub before pressing the end
bushing into the beam. End bushings pressed in at an angle will damage the end bushing
and the equalizing beam.
Figure 8-17
5. Verify the end bushing’s outer metal is square with the end hub. Equalizing beam and
end bushing damage will result if the bushings are pressed in at an angle.
CARE MUST BE TAKEN DURING THE INSTALLATION OF THE BUSHING. DO NOT PUSH ON THE INNER
METAL OF THE BUSHING, DOING SO WILL CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BUSHING AND VOID WARRANTY.
6. Install the end bushing into the end hub by pressing on the installation tool until the
installation tool contacts the end hub. This will center the bushing in the end hub, see
Figure 8-18.

Cross Tube
The 瀚瑞森 HUV 270t cross tube connects the two (2) equalizing beams through the
equalizing beam’s center bushings. Figure 8‑19. The cross tube has clearance to float sideto-side in the center bushings. The length of the cross tube will allow side-to-side movement
of approximately 60 mm. For this reason, the cross tube may appear polished or missing
paint at each end where it enters into the center bushings. This is normal. DO NOT grease
the cross tube or center bushing.
A cross tube seldom requires replacement, usually only when it has been bent, possibly
due to hitting an unseen object. A bent cross tube will cause misalignment of the axles, and
must be replaced immediately to eliminate abnormal tire wear. Replacement of the cross
tube requires removal of both equalizing beams. Follow the equalizing beam disassembly
procedure in this section.
