| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Change 1 Part Black {x77 String, Cord (Undetermined Type) to x77ac15 String, Cord Thin 15cm}
* Change 1 Part Black {x137 Rubber Band Medium (Square Cross Section) Thin Cut to x264 Rubber Band Large (Square Cross Section)}
* Change 1 Part Black {x137 Rubber Band Medium (Square Cross Section) Thin Cut to x264 Rubber Band Large (Square Cross Section)} (Extra)
Comments from Submitter:
I measured the original string on my copy of the set - it's 15 cm.
The x137 rubber band cannot physically reach under the truck - look at the instructions for how this part is used in the build. The x264 rubber band fits, and appears to work smoothly, although I don't know if that is the rubber band size that was originally supplied. The change log shows that the rubber band was originally listed as a small rubber band, so unless someone has a sealed copy of this set to measure from, it's hard to know for sure.

You are asking to change from a rubber band with a diameter of approx. 3L to
a rubber band with a diameter of between 4L and 5L.
This video shows an unboxing of a sealed set. I will estimate the rubber band
to be about 3 studs in diameter.
https://youtu.be/N1uBmKQKOd4?si=oZK3X1plakVNrwTu&t=202
At the place in the video where the rubber band lies across the string, I estimate
the length of the string to be approx. 25L which is approx. 20 cm. Therefore,
15 cm is too short.
I therefore must reject this request and await proof from a sealed set regarding
the exact length of the string.
