Dear Sirs, "Jackalls" - 21-G-IV. We have heard from our Tester in France re the above. He informs us that the nearside front junction box union which runs to the offside Jack has broken off. As the unit is all one casting, will you please forward another box as soon as possible. We will return the defective box to you as soon as it is to hand. Attached is a rough sketch of the part in question. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
