Designs have been issued for threaded shackles on the rear suspension to be tried out experimentally as a remedy for excessive wear of the present type of plain shackle. We have issued a design for a strengthened connecting rod, following on the failures on the Nairobi car. Designs for a simpler type of synchromesh mechanism have been instructed.
