Re: Bentley - Front Axle Control Ball Pin. I am forwarding to you a broken ball pin taken from a N.S.F axle control on B-91-FC. mileage 16,933. This is the first one experienced at the Kingsbury Depot but it may be of interest to you. We have no data why the fracture has taken place. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W.
