G.CD.1105 - BRAKE EQUALISER ANCHORAGE ON PD.312 (HALF FLOATING) REAR AXLE.

A new axle tube is shown on PD.312, and the above scheme adapts the rear brake equaliser parts to suit this new tube.

Most of the parts are those which will be used with G.CD.960 on B.V. Fully Floating Rear Axle. The exceptions are, a difference in the machining of the forged bracket on the rear axle, and longer bolt and distance tube for clamping up the rubbers.

This completes instructions for the new .650 Hypoid semi-floating rear axle.
