LOWER TRIANGLE LEVERS - FRONT SUSPENSION.

[Handwritten initials 'ATM']

Please receive herewith the following
scheme :-

F.CD.881 Modified Lower Tri angle Thrust Stay.

The above scheme shews a thrust stay with upset ends fixed into the lower triangle lever and the torque arm by studs.

This simplifies the forgings of the triangle lever and torque arm. No adjustment is provided as the Experimental Department do not consider it necessary.

Please instruct as soon as possible.
