Having never played with articulated trucks, if the engine spins and the shaft to the converter doesn't spin, I can only assume the coupler has failed. Can it be changed w/o taking the engine or transmission out. How long should it take?

O.AburummanNew Member#3 If you could give me the serial no. of the truck, I will give you full details.
heymccallSenior Member#4 A8971132 Do I buy the 15317868, or can just the insert be purchased.? We've got 5 TA30 and 1 TA300. I'm slowly learning the trucks. Thanks in advance.
O.AburummanNew Member#5 You can only change the rubber ring, and this part number is not available in Terex for newer models.
O.AburummanNew Member#6 This is complete but you can only change the inner rubber ring.
O.AburummanNew Member#7 I am selling the rubber ring alone and it has a two-year warranty because I have been working in the Terex truck field for ten years and I have a good stock of parts and good experience in truck maintenance. If you need any questions about Terex truck maintenance, I am ready to provide service [email protected]
Vetech63Senior Member#8 Those are fun to change. I remember straddling the front axle under the right fender breaking the bolts off the flywheel. I racked myself several times but got it done in less than a day.

Cab tilted .Use crane on service truck to lift coupler on to fender/ step then rigged up come along under cab to pull and lower it into place .
Universal PartsNew Member#10 Terex trucks are not very popular in China. No one has ever asked about this coupling. It is a German original. Part number: 15268882.
