Class 3 Fork Length Discontinuation


As part of our ongoing efforts to streamline operations and reduce manufacturing complexity at our Muscatine facility, we are announcing the discontinuation of select blunt nose fork lengths, effective February 15, 2026. This discontinuation is effective immediately for 8HBE30/40 models.

This change will impact all orders submitted after the effective date. To ensure uninterrupted fulfillment and alignment with future production standards, dealers should transition to the Universal fork type for all applicable truck configurations.

Reason for Change

These fork configurations have consistently experienced low order volumes, and eliminating them simplifies production processes and improves throughput at the Muscatine manufacturing plant.

Next Steps

  • All open quotes with a discontinued fork length after 2/15/2026 should be updated with an available fork option.
  • Orders already submitted and acknowledged prior to the cutoff date will not be affected.
  • Please review your current and future customer orders to ensure alignment with this change.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we make this transition. Reducing unnecessary product complexity will help ensure continued quality, reliability, and efficiency across our product offerings.

If you have any questions or require assistance identifying suitable replacement fork options, please contact Product Support at (812) 577-8596 or Product.Support@ToyotaTMH.com.
