| - 2 - The smoothness of brake action with the J.M. linings appears noticeably better, and they do not demand nearly such careful initial bedding. In our tests we have made no attempt to taper off the ends of the linings, as we wanted to run every chance of squeaking and grabbing. Very truly yours, ROLLS ROYCE OF AMERICA, INC. Maurice Olley | ||
