(12). Ball bearings to bottom slider, as per N.Sch. 4140.

(13). Gearbox vent as per N.Sch. 4170.

(14). Spherical bearing for change gear shaft, as per N.Sch. 4173.

We are not introducing the engine tie rod, as per N.Sch.4139, but we are retaining the engine torque re-action dampers in accordance with a recent request, and the exhaust cutout is being deleted.

In cases where standardisation sheets have already been circulated, we have indicated the reference number, but should be glad if standardisation sheets could be issued as soon as possible for the other items being introduced at 51. in T.2. series.
