| W/S. CWB. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} +8600 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}4/LG11.12.25. POSITION OF SPARE WHEEL CARRIER ON 11-EX. +8960 There is no reason why the spare wheels carrier should not go further back. The [strikethrough]wheel[/strikethrough] position on 'D' steering cars is much further back. The only doubtful point if the wheel is put further back is whether the doors can be opened, otherwise the further back the better. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
