| FROM DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} Copy to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} SECRET. ORIGINAL DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M6.2.29. SS.{S. Smith} FRONT SHOCK DAMPER. X7520 Since we sent you N. sch. 2814. we have given the question of the ball end lubrication further consideration, and we think that the attached N. sch. 2817. will be more acceptable than N. sch. 2814. The principle improvement is reduction in the size of the holes passing through the lever bosses. We suggest that you should use this scheme instead of N. sch. 2814. The lubrication principle is the same, and is that which the Exp. Dept. have recently asked for. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
