| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. c. to RG.{Mr Rowledge} c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X. 9940 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}4/M4.12.23. 40/50 - FOUR WHEEL BRAKES. We send herewith N.sch.1710 shewing the type of sleeve spring clip with dowel pegs fitting into holes in the axle, instead of the type with a projecting key on the axle itself. We should like N.sch.1710. to be used for axles already in existence with the keys machined off. Subsequently we expect to revert to the key type of which you have particulars on N.sch.1317.
