| X.4085. Extract from DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /EV {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 1/M12.2.24. - VISIT TO SALES FEB.8th. (9) - SIDE WHEEL CARRIER - X.4085. The head of the side wheel carrier turns round causing the wheel to foul the paintwork and scratch it. We are surprised to hear this since the clamping bolt bites into the tube. However we suggest that a Woodruff key be inserted as in the sketch below. Would Derby please do this? SEE ORIGINAL FOR SKETCH. DA {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} /EV. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
