The water seal shown on this scheme necessitates a machining operation on the adjuster housing which for reasons connected with purchasing, we are anxious to avoid. Will you please alter the scheme to show a square section rubber ring with a groove in it, as explained to Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /DB. {Donald Bastow - Suspensions} as these are quite cheap. Will HPP. please note that no adjuster housings need be modified. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /APM. | ||
