ORIGINAL. TO BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. c. to WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X9940 X4428 40/50 FRONT WHEEL BRAKES. We send herewith N.scheme 1345 shewing a modification to N.scheme 1317 to provide a pull-off spring on the operating shaft. It will be seen that in place of the forged lug on the axle a turned pillar could be used if it is desired to use up the existing axle forgings.
