STANDARDISATION SHEET - FOUR WHEEL BRAKES. X9940 X9410

Attached herewith is standardisation sheet for 4-wheel brakes. You asked for this to be returned to you after the 10,000 miles test on springs.

The 10,000 miles testhas now been completed on the Woodhead 20% stiffer front springs. We propose sending a further std. sheet round when the tests are completed for the 12½% springs which are now in progress and which we anticipate will be completed in a fortnight or three weeks time.
