| AJL. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} 87520 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}3/MJ.25.9.30. We have some weaker springs to try in the connecting links of the Phantom 11 damper. There are four of these in the Stores - F.82412. Will you please fit them to a connecting link and find the ball end load required to start the spring deflecting when in the set up running position. Having obtained this figure, will you please fit them to two Phantom 11 cars. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
