Vibration was occurring in some Volvo truck prop shafts at low speeds and high engine torque. This was due to a suboptimal support bearing installation for certain chassis on walk-behind trucks. The recommended action is to install a single prop shaft, rather than a dual shaft, using part number 20949408. Volvo Truck Corporation will cover costs within warranty periods but not for preventative replacements outside of warranty.
