PEREGRINE REAR ENGINE SUSPENSION. Herewith we send W.sch.3619. shewing the suggested modification to the rear engine suspension of the Peregrine to enable a rubber bush to be used in place of the present ferodo. It will be seen that the bush is not as thick as has been suggested for Bensport, but it is probably thick enough, and it can be increased if found necessary. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
