Specifically, the proposed work includes the removal, inspection, and repair or replacement of the Power Divider assembly to OEM standards using genuine OEM par
1.2 Technical Background and Justification for Repair/ReplacementDuring routine scheduled maintenance performed by Vehicle Maintenance personnel, a critical internal failure was identified within the vehicle's power divider. Diagnostics revealed the following discrepancies:
