INTRODUCTION:
It is normal production procedure to check certain fastenings
on cars before.they leave the factory. The steering box
pendulum lever s~curing nut , is included in this check.

both cases the threads of the securing nuts were damaged.
The cause of the problem has been identified and if it
exists in service it will be limited to the cars listed in

and asked to bring their car to be checked. In those cases
where cars sold by your company are serviced elsewhere, the
owner should be requested to take the car to his nearest
Rolls-Royce franchise holder.
Satisfactory completion of this work should be identified by
two white paint spots on the epaulette on the right hand corner
of the radiator top tank and on the lower end of the steering
box rocker shaft.
