Steering for 22-G-V.{VIENNA} As we shall be unable to obtain a steering roller finished by Ransome & Marles in time for the above steering, will you please fit a standard roller obtained from production, and in addition a rockershaft pin without splines, as on 35-EX. This involves boring out existing pieces and making one bolt to EX.23594. In order to ensure that the casehardening of the roller is up to specification, will you please obtain two rollers from the same batch and cut one of them in half, the other to be used in the gear.
