| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} X7430 DAL/M15.6.28. RE. SUPPORT OF STEERING COLUMN WITH CAST DASH. X.7430 X.7500 Since your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rml/LG30.4.28., we have not heard any more about the support of the column with the cast dash. On 14-EX the column supported from the cast dash by a cast bracket was considered to be entirely satisfactory. Is this confirmed for the standard cast dash? We do not refer of course to the sports steering which is a special problem. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
