The "Failure" responses fell into 3 main categories:

1) List members with broken pin(s):

-  Dave reports he broke 2 fulcrum pins

-  another list member (Tony?) reported he broke one.
-  SC: LFC broke at rear, between bolt and control arm 2/9

-  Tom Witt saw evidence on crossmember of PO's pin failure 2/9

       (maybe I should have put this account in the #3 group)



2) List members who found a crack and replaced the pins:

-  Robin Young: 2 bent by PO. One was also cracked at rear 2/9

-  Jim Burrus: crack found by magnaflux - replaced without incident 2/9



3) List members recounting failure in someone else's Tiger:

-  Owain Lloyd: witnessed a failure in someone else's Tiger 2/9

-  Jim Leach recalls that Wayne Reuter broke a pin backing up. 2/10

Anyone else out there with a fulcrum pin problem to report?
