Herewith is G.CD.8 showing the Wraith Servo applied to the Universal Gearbox, on the offside, as proposed for Bentley 111. It will be seen that the only important modification is the length of the rear arm of the bridge, and the corresponding modification to the length of the servo balancer lever, both of which will be incorporated on Wraith when this box is applied to that chassis.
