Interim 2011 model year, a new design front output shaft deflector (3) was implemented into production for second design NQF and NQG applications. First design 2011 model year NQF and NQG applications can be identified as not having the deflector on the front output shaft.

For service, the new design front output shaft, deflector, and new design seal may be installed on current and prior model year Magna NQF, NQG, NQH, and NP0 applications providing the new design front output shaft is also installed. The front output shaft deflector is to be installed using J 8092  Driver Handle (1) and DT 50649  Seal Installer (2).

The new design deflector (1) can be installed onto all current and prior model year Magna RPOs NQF, NQG, NQH, and NPO applications providing the new design front output shaft (2) is also installed. Second design front output shafts can be identified by the machined area on the OD output end of the shaft (2). First design front output shafts can be identified by the dust boot clamp groove located (3) at the OD output end of the shaft. The new design slinger will NOT install onto the first design shafts.
