The 4-way junction piece on the R.H. side for the ride control is not very well placed, the rearmost union coming under the flanges of the cross, and making it very awkward to screw up. We suggest that this junction piece should be moved forward 2.375" at its present height. This will make the rear union accessible without getting too close to the change gear gate in front.
