| (2) We have noticed at the same time, that the softer damping tends to increase the radiator and wing movements, and we find that the Harmonic Stabiliser which we have previously tried, assists in minimising this effect to a great extent. Steering joggles do not appear to have been effected by the softer damping. The actual settings were checked with a full load of 23 lbs. on the bellows and taken over an oscillation of two seconds. Load on end of arm. Front 210 lbs. Rear 270 lbs. The initial load in each case is 40 lbs. ----------------- GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}/HMH. | ||
