3 P.II - BRAKES.

Will you please make the following alterations from N.Sch. on the brakes on this car:-

(1) Alter G.100533 from 2.750° to 3.14"
(2) " G.100528 " 1.625 to 1.23
(3) " G.100958 " 2.00 to 5.000

The 5.000 lever will foul the gearbox cross-member necessitating a vertical slot in it. The slot will not foul either flange.
