We are issuing a standardisation sheet for the large front anchorage bracket Lec.5084 (suitable for conversion to rubber shackles) and for the rubbers F.38485/6 ZZZZ, between the rear axle and the springs. The rubbers need not be oil resisting rubber, but should have a durometer hardness of 70/75. Both these items were fitted to 32-EX for its recent mileage in France, and it is hoped that they may be introduced at the beginning of "B" series. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A.
