| Ref. 104(89-iv) Re Clutch Trunnion Socket Link C711. Mr Spinney 8/1/12. TBB1/L8112. Will you kindly lay out this socket link and ball end, to see if the clearance provided is more than necessary and if the bearing surface could be increased as previously instructed. The Committee are of the opinion that this matter should be gone into immediately, as the time taken will be small and we are at present manufacturing a part which may be incorrect.
