STANDARDISATION OF CHASSIS PARTS. SIGNATURES DATE MR JOHNSON MR ROYCE MR WORMALD MR ROWLEDGE MR DAY MR BAILEY MR PLATFORD MR ELLIOTT MR HENTHORN MR HIVES R's remarks :- (1) Had we not better at once make standard the 25% stronger spring proposed for four wheel brakes so as to have less variety to stock. (2) Kindly advise me if this increase does lessen the risk of breakage. (3) Do we alter the initial camber so as to bring the car level and not up at the front with extra bump? (4) Do we increase the thickness of the rubber buffers? FHR. | ||
