Abstract: A hydraulic manifold assembly having a block including a plurality of fluid ports provided on a common surface of the block, and a set of hydraulic fittings. Each fitting is assigned to a prescribed one of the ports. Each fitting includes a hollow bolt insertable into the prescribed fluid port, and a banjo block having a first aperture for receiving the hollow bolt and a second aperture intersecting the first aperture. The second aperture provides an external fluid port for fluidly coupling a remote device. The plurality of banjo blocks includes at least one adjacent pair of banjo blocks that are unique from each other and have exterior shapes complementary to each other to control the relative orientation therebetween when coupled to the prescribed fluid ports. The exterior shapes of the adjacent banjo blocks cooperate to prevent misassembly.

Abstract: A torque dampening compensator for a vehicle including an isolator member disposed between an input member and an output member. The isolator member includes isolator elements disposed between corresponding lugs of the respective input and output members. The lugs of the output member have a draft angle, and the isolator elements have contact faces corresponding to the respective lugs with unequal axial depths to induce a moment on each isolator element that counteracts a thrust load between the input and output members initiated by the draft angle. One isolator element of the isolator member is formed to have a size corresponding to the space provided between adjacent lugs of the input and output members and a shape that is dissimilar from the space. The one isolator element is resiliently deformable into the space.
