To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} R.{Sir Henry Royce} By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} LES X3873 Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/HP.7.2.34. Independent Front Wheel Suspension. -------------------------------- Herewith is a print of N. Sch.3967, a sketch of the suggested modification to the steering linkage to improve the geometry. The scheme is, of course, temporary, so as to go on the car with a minimum of alteration. There is a slight temporary loss of lock. (Print handed to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les). Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
