re. 20.HP. BACK AXLE RATIOS.
X4256
In reply to your memo. BJ22/H14824.,
since we are particularly anxious that the 20.HP. chassis not appear sluggish, I am quite agreeable to all the back axles being fitted with the 11 tooth pinions, since they are now considered equally silent, of ample strength, and wear well.
