BENTLEY 3, 50 and WRAITH 80.

REAR SPRINGS.

A.R.M.

Please receive herewith the following scheme :-

F.CD.852 Locating screw for threaded bushes.

In order to obtain a definite stop for the threaded bushes pressed into position without knurling, we show a screw produced in S/N. with a .137 dia. end instead of the one at present used, which is produced in brass.

It will be noticed that a locating screw has been added to the shackle bracket, a boss will therefore require adding to the forgings.

Please instruct experimentally.
