Please receive herewith the following scheme :- F.CD.1371 Exhaust Tail Pipe Support Bracket. The above scheme shews the exhaust tail pipe supported by a simple cantilever bracket bolted to the frame. This method is preferred to extending the left hand rearmost body bracket, as it does not offer any diffi culties with packing, also the right and left hand rear body brackets are now common. Please instruct experimentally, and for production. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
