  4. the back lid on top of transmission depending on how it has been set up it will have either one air regulator or two the pistons and O rings can be changed with out pulling the lid off on mine I can get the lid off mine just with out dropping the transmission or lifting the cab I have gotta pull the floor out of the cab to do this and huge amount of swearing follows and skinned knuckles Paul
