EAC.10 1" OFFSET HYPOID REAR AXLE. X.7350 X.2066 X.3807

Herewith we send N.sch.2552/3/5 on which we have shewn XXXX R's proposal for the New Departure bearing and oil retaining devices on the 1" offset hypoid gear which is now being erected.

It will be seen that we have made several alternative suggestions, and we do not know which R.{Sir Henry Royce} will prefer, so that we XXXX expect it is desirable, before detailing, to wait to hear further.
