X7941 Hotel de France Châteauroux Indre 74 30/4/29 We have today tried the car with the reduced braking to the front brakes before altering the servo or relining. The amount of braking to the front is aproximatily 10% too much with these conditions. We have also got the cross steering tube made up and brazied. It is now ready to fit to the car. We have so made it that we can alter the toe in of the wheels definate what we require. We are now fitting the cotton duck servo linings. G.W.H. | ||
