X4083 E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}5/LGG.7.22. GOSHAWK 11. TOOL KIT. X4083 The details of the friction flywheel hub which is fixed to the crankshaft shows a radius and chamfer. It was not appreciated that the collar was left for withdrawing purposes. We still consider that it would be a more satisfactory job to have this part threaded. I think you are optimistic when you mention a Garages being provided with withdrawing tackle. There is also a row of studs which we think would most probably foul any standard withdrawing tackle. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
