How do you convert an AL44 to an AL40?

To convert the AL44 to an AL40 you can replace the outside plunger unit in the chassis or order the AL40 chassis.  Replacing the plunger unit is more difficult and time consuming and would not be recommended unless the person doing the work has experience with replacing parts in the AL-Series chassis. 

  • For the quick and easy way to make this change just replace the chassis.  Ordering instructions for AL40 chassis and spring cages: AL40S LLL 626 LLL LLL 
  • To replace just the outside plunger unit, order the AL40 plunger assembly (part number 51-040) and follow the instructions from the AL-Series Service Manual found here.
