| X.3439 To Mr. Warwick. from Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Da{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}4/CB16.12.20. X-3439 Re Clutch Holding-out Device. A customer sent us the accompanying wooden tee piece, which he had made for holding out the clutch overnight in place of the piece of wood we put between the nut an the steering column, and the clutch pedal. I said that I would have this tried on a chassis and see whether it was a distinct improvement. Perhaps you could try it and let us know ? Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
