ATTACHMT: ATTACHED TO 11/28/95 LETTER FROM Samuel J. Dubbin to Ben Ray (A43; Std. 121; Part 571.7)

TEXT: Dear Mr. Womack,

This letter is in regards to brake adjusters for log trailers. I am currently building log trailers for resale. These trailers are used mostly in the woods transporting logs from the woods to the mills. I am using used axles under them. These used ax les already have regular brake adjusters on there when I buy them. What I would like is some paperwork saying if this is alright to use these regular brake adjusters instead of automatic adjusters. I was referred to you by Richard Carter, (202-366-5274 ). Mr. Carter said there was a fine line in regards to which one to use because of the fact that the axles that I use are used. He also said being that the trailer is not considered new, that I could use a regular brake adjuster. I would really apprec iate it if you could send me some paperwork stating that it is alright to use these regular brake adjusters. If you should have any questions, please call me at home, 901-925-2727 or work, 901-925-1893.

Sincerely,
