STEERING CHECKS
APPLICABLE TO:
All Rolls-Royce and Bentley motor cars listed in pages 6 to 10

INTRODUCTION:
This Service Bulletin has been issued to instruct certain
visual and torque tightness checks which must be carried out
on a group of car types listed above, the chassis numbers of
which are given at the end of this bulletin.
The checks are given in no particular order of importance or
priority and some of the checks do not necessarily apply to
all of the cars listed. However for simplicity we have decided
to apply them generally to all of the cars listed.
There is a slight exception regarding one check and this is
noted in the bulletin text.

steering rack mounting feet to the front sub-frame.
