X.4264 We do not like the present pendulum lever R.288, and wish to substitute for it a modified design, which we shew on "H" Scheme 675. The modification is in the shank and does not effect the machining at all. Would you please put through a new detail in accordance with "H" Scheme 675, of which two prints are attached, as this lever will also be used on "Kite". DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
