X.9390 Extract from DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EVI/M12.2.24. - VISIT TO SALES FEB. 8th. (2) REAR UPSWEEP OF FRAME. EAC.2. X.9390 The heelboard in its rearmost position is 8 1/2" to 9" in front of the axle. It would therefore be a great advantage on EAC.2. frame to move the upsweep at least 1" towards the rear, and more if possible to prevent the wooden runners from being either cut in two or protruding through the floor.
