25/30 HP. CHASSIS - STEERING
---------------------------

As arranged with Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} would you kindly bring the washers on the pivot, which carry the load, into line with those on the Bentley by having three narrow slots spaced at 120° on each side of the thrust washer instead of one wide slot.
