Steering Cam Roller Assembly.
Out of the last batch of 58 rollers received from Hoffman's only 6 have passed for pre-loading which should be from 4 to 8 ozs. The remaining 52 are much below our standard, some are not pre-loaded whilst others are only pre-loaded from 1 to 2 ozs.
Will you please report this matter to Hoffman's.
