Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}(For Depot Sheet). 206 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM{Anthony F. Martindale}1/R.22.6.37. BRAKE SQUEAKS - BENTLEY. Further to our memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM{Anthony F. Martindale}4/AP.10.6.37., in which we advised fitting Ferodo BZ and 35° servo cams in complaint cases of brake squeaks, we think it advisable to fit anti-judder levers N.Sch.4865 to any car so altered. Although 35° servo cams should not increase the tendency to judder, it is unwise to run any risks. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale} | ||
