| -2- 11. Radiator suspension on ball pins - we found that the centre distance piece provided was not long enough to meet the thickness of packing washer we were compelled to use in this instance. Had to obtain longer ones especially to prevent the springs becoming absolutely choc. Longer distance pieces should be provided to meet variations. When this suspension is finally fitted, the drawing calls for the studs to be drilled in position to take split pin. This should be altered as it is no job at all to have to drill 1/16" split pin holes in such a position with a small hand brace. Sft {Mr Swift} /Sct. | ||
