Mr. Hancock from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} The two front springs you have just fitted to 9-G-111 are 600 lbs. springs compared with 600/650 lbs. which were originally fitted. From the dimensions you give of the clearances, it is certain that the original springs must have settled down. We should like you to watch the present 600 lbs. springs to see whether they do the same. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
