| contd :- -2- the O.S. standard friction. I have had these dismantled - made the serrations free and reset to 70 lbs., but as your letter arrived stating that the hydraulic dampers were to be fitted, I have left this in abeyance until I return. I will report further on my return to Chateauroux. G.W.Hancock. | ||
