Someone remind me but........ Am I correct in that I seem to recall that our L2's had screw-on replacement foresight protector ears? At unit and Field level we used to replace the (common.....) broken L1 protector ears with square section spring washers welded on as a temporary fix. Same as No5's. Same old story.... and bayonet crosspieces. They bend or get damaged sliding about in the back of the vehicles so someone with the pliers tries to straighten it out and SNAP!
