'SS{S. Smith}' SHOCK DAMPER CONN: RODS.

Herewith we send N.sch.2653 shewing the rear
shock damper conn. rods with spring loaded ball ends.

We have shewn one suitable for each arrangement
of shock damper, but as on N.sch.2651 the conn. rod is short.
We have suggested that it might be made solid in that case,
but in N.sch.2652 should be built up with tube.
