Dixon - Fuel Systems} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}6/MH.{M. Huckerby}27.7.39. 7.B.V. BRAKES. When the two leading shoe brakes are fitted to the above car we will not be using the servo, and the rod to operate the front brakes will have to be fitted on the off-side of the chassis. This means that the front equalizer will have to be moved to the offside of the front pan. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems} | ||
