Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 8043  Name: Motorized Excavator
* 
8043-1 (Inv) Motorized Excavator
1123 Parts, 2010
Sets: Technic: Model: Construction

* Change {43 to 45} Part Blue 43093 Technic, Axle Pin with Friction Ridges Lengthwise

Comments from Submitter:
The actual build requires a quantity of 45 for part 43093 (Technic, Axle Pin with Friction Ridges Lengthwise) in blue colour.
The official LEGO parts inventory at the end of the building instruction only calls up a quantity of 43 but this inventory does not include the additional parts provided with a later released service pack. The service pack exchanged the linear actuators and added a few part incl. 2 for part 43093.
The building instruction itself got updated to include the changes using the additional 2 43093 parts but the inventory wasn't updated. This is obvious by checking the quantities of parts 6587 & 32184 listed in the official inventory. One additional piece of each are required to complete the build. They were part of the aforementioned service pack.
I tried building 8043 motorized excavator with 43 axle pins (part 43093) but following the official instructions I had to add 2 more. Therefore I think this sets inventory needs to get updated. Especially as the quantites of parts 6587 & 32184 already reflect the additional pieces and only part 43093 is missing this update.
