TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M27.11.23. re. FOUR WHEEL BRAKES. X1559 x9960 We think that if you could measure the pull in the vertical rod between the last axle lever and the lever on the brake shoe it would be an indication whether there is any unnecessary friction in the mechanism which is causing us to lose any considerable proportion of our pressure.
