Hi All,
I thought you may be interested in another little issue that has surfaced with the work on this A/C. It is one of the ex Thai ones that went to Australia. SB 15/2 refers to the replacement of the front elevator mounting ball end. The original is a standard (but HTS) 10mm ball end with a nut to lock and the replacement has a shoulder and spacers to get in the correct position. However the pin that is slides on (in this case) was not the original and was not HTS but mild steel. Also its diameter was 11mm not 10. Also it did not have the lead in ball at the end. Initially I did not give it too much thought but now working in that area and having paid an arm and leg for the new rod end, having a non standard pin was just too dodgy. Has this been an issue with any of the others ?? Best regards Ian Williams
