-2- P.CD.1313. Proposed Body Brkt. Frame Jig. FB.4872. Principal Frame dimensions for Jig Assembly. We discussed the above drawings with a view to getting the best method of jig assembling the frame to suit the body. It was decided that yourselves should produce a light jig representing your bottom sides and wheelarches, giving the correct position of the mounting holes which should be sent to the frame makers in order that they may produce a jig to suit. We hope you can produce this jig without delay, as the frame makers wish to use it until they can produce a suitable jig. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. CHIEF ENGINEER - CHASSIS. | ||
