We send herewith N. scheme 2256. shewing the arrangement of the servo stop working below the servo, and also the modified arrangement of balancing lever friction in the suspension links etc.
It will be seen that we have arranged so that the jaw pin can be put in either way without fouling the suspension link.
It will also be seen that there are modifications to the bridge and to the parts of the balancing lever itself, in order to suit the arrangement of brake differentials which is being sent you at the same time.
