| H6094 346 To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}12/KW.10.12.34. SpectreCodename for Phantom III Suspension. Will you please put in hand a pair of rear spring anchorage brackets which will lower the front end of the rear springs 3". We wish to try these in connection with the trouble of the car over steering on corners. We do not think the additional angle of the rear universal joint will matter for a short test.
