Known issues on the 2007 T6500. A single owner complaint is on record for this model year, and it concerns the suspension. Suspension work on a truck that carries weight for a living is exacting, since ride height, fastener torque and component condition all bear on how the chassis behaves loaded, and this manual supplies the removal and installation procedures, the specifications those components are held to, and the torque values for each fastener, alongside the engine, driveline and electrical material that makes up the rest of the coverage.
