| To H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Smith. c. to F.Dodd. X7520 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/An.2/MJ.22.10.30. We want to raise the oil level in all the hydraulic shock absorbers on our experimental Phantom 11 cars by .750". Will you please, therefore, shorten all the stand pipes by this amount at the same time venting the damper as on 24-EX. After this alteration the damper should be examined for leaks at fixed intervals. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
