RE INDIA SERVOS

When Servo on 9.G.III was dismantled it was found that bushes for Pressure Plate dowels were broken away. In one case there was no bush left. Section of these bushes are very thin being .031 - Forging would allow for a much thicker bush. It could be increased to .062 section.

Do you consider this alteration should be carried

out?
