RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS). REFER TO THE SRS
COMPONENT AND WIRING LOCATION VIEW IN
ORDER TO DETERMINE WHETHER YOU ARE
PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS
COMPONENTS OR THE SRS WIRING. WHEN YOU
ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR NEAR THE SRS

ONLY the exact part number for that application.

ISUZU will call out those fasteners that require a

replacement after removal. ISUZU will also call out

the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread

sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not

use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other

corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or

fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings

adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint

clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When

you install fasteners, use the correct tightening

sequence and specifications. Following these

instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and

systems.
