SpectreCodename for Phantom III - Rear Brake Operation. To meet the difficulty with the exhaust swan-neck pipe we send herewith N. Sch.4100 showing an idler lever inserted in the L.H. operating cable. This also improves the effective leverage between the equaliser and the operating lever on the brake carrier and helps to break up the rather long L.H. cable. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
