| HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 20HP. FRONT AXLE. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/M26.11.29. X5420. Thank you for your HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/AD211129. What you seem to prove is that we cannot lower the springs. It appears to be not the drop in the axle but the position of the springs that is the trouble. We will send you some further views about this in the course of a short while.
