Chassis Lubrication System.

Continual drips from the N.S.R. spring shackle have been noted. We examined the bijur feeds and found ZS.5 on each side to the rear shackles. We have replaced these by ZS.2. Will you please let us know if you have reason to disagree with this.

We have checked all the bijur feeds and have found no other troubles.
