| By/CRL.{C. R. Lisson} 1001 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}1/JH.19.11.37. WRAITH HUBS. The front hub retaining nut GW.418 requires a different spanner to Bentley. This is unnecessary as the grease cap on Wraith is slightly smaller than on Bentley. Will you please decrease the inner diameter of this piece so that it will take a locking wire of the same dia., and the same spanner as Bentley. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F.
