RUBBER CONNECTING LINKS FOR DAMPERS, & ROLL RODS. In view of the fact that Wraith is relying on unlubricated links, it is necessary to get as much experience as possible on the rubber links. Will you please, therefore, fit the rear roll rod and damper rubber links from 38-EX on to the P.III bumper chassis. Both chassis are at the present in pieces in the shop. We also think that 3 more sets of parts should be produced. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} | ||
