| -2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1/LG31520. Contd. 5. We do not agree that the connecting tube fouls the end of the rear springs. We saw 22-LW when it was ballasted up and there appeared to be ample clearance at that point. We have never had any of the shock absorbers which have been fitted, fouling at that point. 6. We consider that as soon as it is convenient the castellated nut and split pin should be used on the lower ball end. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
