To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to BJ. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X. 7380 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}8/M23. 7. 26. EAC-7 FRAME CROSS MEMBERS. With reference to the top bolt of the rear spring front anchorage fouling the subframe, we send herewith N. sch. 2242 shewing the modification we suggest to overcome this. There is a new type of gusset used and we have raised the centre of the bolt so that a box spanner can be got on. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
