PEREGRINE FRONT AXLE. X4475 We send you herewith N.sch. 1235 shewing front axle and cross steering tube. As in the case of the back axle, Rudge-Whitworth wire wheels are principally provided for, but Dunlop, and Michelin disc can be used by changing the hub. The design follows the practice of Goshawk 11. except in the matter of the inclination of the wheel and pivot in which advantage has been taken of the fact that the latter can be reduced owing to the shorter length of pivot.
