Sample TE1 questions

Straight from the bank — answers highlighted, with the explanation underneath.

When drilling new mounting holes in a truck frame rail, the holes should be located in which part of the rail?

  1. The web (vertical center section)
  2. The top flange
  3. The bottom flange
  4. Equally across both flanges
WhyThe flanges carry the highest bending stress in a channel frame, so a hole there creates a stress riser that can crack. Body-builder guidelines require holes in the web, kept clear of the flange radius.

Two technicians discuss drilling a truck frame. Technician A says new holes may be drilled in the web but must be kept a minimum distance from the flange radius. Technician B says holes in the top or bottom flange are acceptable if they are small. Who is correct?

  1. Technician A only
  2. Technician B only
  3. Both Technicians A and B
  4. Neither Technician
WhyWeb holes are permitted with proper edge and flange spacing. Flange holes of any size sit in the peak-stress zone and are prohibited by body-builder guidelines.

A dump body slowly settles (creeps down) on its own after being raised and held. The MOST likely cause is:

  1. Internal leakage past the cylinder piston seal or the control-valve spool
  2. A plugged return-line filter
  3. An oversized reservoir
  4. Loose body-mounting U-bolts
WhyWith the valve in the hold position, only internal leakage past a worn piston seal or a valve spool that will not seal lets trapped oil escape and the body settle.
