The demand for lower rating road springs is causing us to become involved with anti-roll rods and radius rods on both the 25 HP. and the Bentley. Naturally we should love to use silent-bloc bushes in order to save rattles and lubrication. Can you let us have any information about the silent-bloc bushes on the roll rod at the rear of SpectreCodename for Phantom III II. It appears that the reliability can be largely increased by fitting a more liberal size of silent bloc. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} | ||
