With reference to DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}7/M10.10.28. We will try the stainless steel plug. We are however not very enamoured with the lubrication system for the joint of this clutch; as on the old type of universal joint, we have seen a number of cases in the Repair Dept. where obvious lack of lubrication is indicated.
