Leslie} CORY [handwritten, struck through] X378 [handwritten] E/HDY.{William Hardy}2/HP.12.2.36. Gearbox Phantom III - Silentbloc Rear Support. We send herewith N.Sch.4764 which shows the above. The only modification from what Messrs. Silentbloc show on their drawing F.36016 is the provision of the disc as on N.Sch.4531 to limit the displacement, prevent the pieces from working backwards and give some protection from oil. Will you kindly note that this is required for immediate production. N.Sch.4764 herewith. E/HDY.{William Hardy} | ||
