Abstract: A wheel speed transducer test adapter and method for wheel speed transducer testing. The wheel speed transducer test adapter includes a socket for engagement with a wheel hub. A clevis is rotatable within the socket and with respect to the socket and the wheel hub. The clevis is engaged with a wheel speed transducer attached to the wheel hub. A collar secures the clevis to the socket. A torque supplying device rotates the clevis at a consistent speed which in turn rotates the wheel speed transducer to test the wheel speed transducer after repair or replacement. The entire assembly ensures stability and alignment while the clevis and wheel speed transducer rotate.

Abstract: Caster assemblies are disclosed herein. An example caster assembly includes a caster frame assembly including a caster frame, a caster mounting plate, and a brake arm; a pin having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the second end to engage the brake arm; and a lever arm having a third end and a fourth end opposite the third end, the lever arm to pivot relative to the caster frame assembly between a first position and a second position, movement of the lever arm to the first position to cause the fourth end of the lever arm to actuate the pin in a first direction to move the brake arm to the engaged position to restrict rotation of the wheel.

Abstract: Engine installation systems and related methods. An engine installation system includes an adapter cradle and a transport dolly. The adapter cradle is configured to support the engine, and the transport dolly is configured to be selectively and operatively coupled to the adapter cradle to support the adapter cradle to facilitate transporting the adapter cradle and the engine across a ground surface. The adapter cradle is configured to be selectively coupled to each of the transport dolly and the vehicle. The adapter cradle is configured to pivot relative to the transport dolly or relative to the vehicle to transition between a transport configuration and an upright configuration. In examples, methods of installing an engine within an engine bay of a vehicle include positioning the engine beneath the engine bay, pivoting the engine relative to the vehicle, and lifting the engine into the engine bay.
