We send herewith LeC.5324 showing the coachwork clearances round the propeller shaft and rear axle for Wraith II.
This drawing shows the 25/30 H.P. axle centre box as already instructed and used with road springs which are flat under load.
It also shows the inclined banjo Wraith II axle and the vertical banjo Wraith II axle, both of which are used with rear road springs having .8 negative camber under full load.
This drawing has been made for coachwork purposes and no detailing is required.
