Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}10/KT.2.3.31. RE LUBRICATING SHOCK DAMPER CONNECTING LINKS ON PHANTOM II & 25 HP. [Handwritten] X5520. To confirm Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}'s conversation will you please see whether the N.sch.3192. of lubricating the shock damper connecting links from the bottom could be applied to existing production cars. It would overcome one of our present complaints of loss of oil from the dampers. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
