Installing the magnet, part # BP01-225, is not tough at all. There is a retaining clip on the control arm that holds the magnet.

The hole in the magnet goes over the upright part of the arm and rests on the spring. Then, all you have to do is replace the clip that holds the magnet to the arm.

If you need the retaining clip we sell them in a pack of 10 with part # AKBRKR-MC.

The brake magnet is held onto an electric braking assembly with a clip. It is not impossible for these to work themselves out over time so I would make sure that you still have the clip in place. The clip is located inside the center of the magnet…

Answer 7

I did a little digging on your grease seal number and it looks like the 16074-224 has an inner diameter of 1.5 inches and an outer diameter of 1.987 so the correct part number you would need is the #10-9.

Answer 8

The thickness of the grease seal like the #168233 won't matter. You're really just worried about the inner and outer diameter of the seal, so as long as your seal cross references to the National Seal 473317 this will be the correct…
