Herewith is N.Sch.4904, a modification to the front brake bell crank lever to deal with the clamping bolt fouling the nuts on the pivot cover, when the brake is fully worn. It is a modification to the machining of the existing piece. We should like one machined up as quickly as possible and tried in position before proceeding too far with the modification.
