Sch.4083, shewing the proposal for applying the centralised chassis lubrication to the cross steering tube end, brake camshaft etc. The brake camshaft bearing casting is modified as regards the lubrication boss, but otherwise forgings are unaltered except for the addition of bosses. The non return valve having been abolished on Bentley, we have not returned to it here, though we can do so if found necessary. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
