9. Gearbox, second intermediate shaft, sliding articulated
shaft and axle casing axis must have the same tilt.
The application of elastic bearings must be done using support plates at least 5 mm thick (see Figure 2.23), connected to crossbars
with characteristics similar to those specified by IVECO.
In modifying the wheelbase, it is best to plan for disassembly of intermediate shafts when shaft length is less than approximately 800
mm.

The considerations made up to this point are valid for vehicles with separate gearboxes.
Furthermore, the wheelbase on these vehicles may not be reduced beyond the shortest value for the series (e.g. tipper truck).
We recommend using original IVECO gearboxes; if this is not possible, the use of raw steel pipes with a yield load of at least 420
N/mm
2
(42 kg/mm

) may be used.
