| J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} for R.{Sir Henry Royce} B5.4.14. Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/G15414. With reference to your note R8/P6314 Cross Steering Levers, we have now altered our drawing so that it agrees with the oversize levers which are being produced by the dies, that is to say, we have increased the width of the top steering lever at the neck from ¾" to ⅞" and the width of the Cross Steering Levers from ⅞" to 1" so that in future dies ordered will be at least up to the strength of the present levers.
