| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to SC. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 20HP. CENTRALISED CHASSIS LUBRICATION. Herewith we send N. scheme 2865. shewing the air vessels in the pivots of the 20HP. front axle. We have shewn it for the axle now being used. We shall have to send you a further scheme for the new dropped axle. Should the axles be in an advanced stage, and it be difficult to alter the pivots now, if you would let us know we would investigate the possibility of putting the air vessel on one of the drip plugs. We do not think however that this latter proposal will be very acceptable. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
