Martindale} 's suggestion for a modified Rear Brake Equaliser mounting to improve the brake geometry. It is desired to test it quickly and BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} thinks BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /Ald. {F. Allwood - Experimental Design} might make the few details required. One or two features can probably be improved in detailing e.g. the bracket carrying the equaliser looks as though it would be better with a separate piece for the equaliser spindle. The attachment of the bracket to the axle tube must be by set screws and not studs as shewn. DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
