| X7450 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Dept. BY4/G.14.5.29. S.S. CHASSIS - STEERING SIDE TUBE SPRINGS. R.{Sir Henry Royce} says he considers we should fit springs into the side steering tube with a rating of 2000 or 2500 lbs. per inch instead of 1500 lbs. per inch as at present. We would like to have Experimental Departments confirmation of this proposal by selecting the poundage preferred. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By | ||
