Moss parts

Recently I received an e-mail from a Moss rep on a separate matter. I then explained that the objective of the e-mail could be easier and more permanently met by improving part quality and that it is important for us as customers and important for Moss as well. I also included documentation and photos to illustrate what I was saying.

I seem to have found a caring person and he realized my sincerity.

We have very recently embarked on what might become the answer we all, Moss included, have been looking for. We are in a learning stage to get a better understanding but this is encouraging.

This afternoon I received this from Moss;
<span style="font-weight: bold">By the way, we have tracked down all instances of the 322-310 bolt and fixed them in not only the driveshaft application but in a couple of Triumph applications as well.

From our tech department

Under the part number 322-310 we have removed all of the fully threaded bolts (hex head screws) from stock. We have corrected our sourcing error so the next time we show stock on the 322-310 it will be the correct 5/16 UNF X 1 ¼ bolt. In addition to the inventory corrections we are currently in the process of updating both the web and catalog for the Triumph 2 – 4A and TR6 so that they we reflect the correct bolt for those make and model applications.</span>

Some might see this as a small thing but I see progress.
It refers to the flange bolts for the rear-axle flange/drive-shaft flange. The wrong bolts were being supplied and being corrected throughout the Moss supply chain from supplier on.
It indicates to me there can be better things to come.
