To Da. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from R. {Sir Henry Royce} Copy to J. {Mr Johnson W.M.} Copy to Na. {Mr Nadin} Copy to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} FRONT SPRINGS. We hope you are making some progress with the experimental front springs having more steel and the low plates with less camber and less stress. X I am rather inclined to think that the 2 1/4" spring for the front of the car is undesirable, as it increases the lateral stiffness which we want to avoid. R. {Sir Henry Royce} X for the object of preventing permanent set. H1076 | ||
