Spectre(Codename for Phantom III) - Front Suspension.

Herewith is N. Sch.4369 which shews a revised oil filler for the shock damper reservoir, to reduce the difficulties in filling.

A facing is required on the boss forging and the two bosses now on the upper triangle bearing housing are replaced by a single boss in the centre.
