Reversal Test of Steering Pivot F.{Mr Friese} 3783. Ger/Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/1121213. I understand that Pivot P3687 is to be condemned and scrapped, and that none of these are to go out, while P3783 is so far a success. Cannot forgings for P.3687 be turned and bored in the same way as P3783? F.H.R. 89K | ||
