Herewith enclosed reports on 19EX Gear Box oil leak & Brakes. - Lubrication inspection gone through as far as reported -
Please note Bijou tests on front axle. These where done before this spell of cold weather set in & the temperature was normal - While there was such a change - the temperature i.e. note column 25° of frost - I dismantled N/S front hub & took a second reading of Bijou drips to compare them with those tested when the weather was warmer - Trust these reports are clear + what you want. - Hope to hear from you - further instruction; etc
Yours faithfully
