X963 X653 Re special Locking arrangement for Steering Ball Sockets. TEB12/L26712. Mr Royce 26.7.12. A special locking arrangement for steering ball sockets was got out sometime ago and this is fitted to chassis 2004 which you have with you at Crowborough. Will you kindly inspect and criticise the same with a view to standardization. The scheme of locking was owing to some trouble which we experienced with Mrs Nicholls car some months ago. | ||
