| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X7410 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/LG4. 2. 27. EAC-Vll CHASSIS. X7410 47430 EAC-Vll. We are having trouble with the steering on. We believe the alteration to the front springs may have some bearing on the subject. We should be obliged if you could look into the question of how we can best experimentally fit the present standard unequal ended springs to this chassis.
