On the above scheme it has been arranged that the cross member for the engine rear suspension should be bolted to the side channels, and that after the correct initial setting of the height of the cross member in relation to the side channels, no further adjustment should be made between these parts. The correct vertical position of the gear box in relation to the frame, is obtained by means of adjusting washers fitted between the bosses, which have been added on the underside of the gear box, and the upper housing for the rubber block. The transverse and longitudinal positions of the gear box are obtained by drilling the lower housing for the rubber block when in position in the cross member. G.CD.162 modifies G.CD.113. These modifications have been suggested by Works. DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
