| G7005. To By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. c. to BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /SS. {S. Smith} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les.7/KT.7.11.31. DIAMOND MOUNTING P.II. TORQUE REACTION DAMPER POUNDAGE. The above should be set just to turn with a load of 25 lbs. at the end of the long arm that fastens to the wheelcase (5.250" radius) This is effected by a load of approx. 125 lbs. on the centre bolt. The spring E.53020 carries a load of 100 lbs. in position, we therefore suggest that a slightly stronger spring be adopted. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Les. | ||
