| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to BJ. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X5380 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}1/M3.7.28. INDIA 3. EXHAUST SYSTEM. X.5230 X.5380 Herewith we send N.sch.2642 giving a sketch of the proposed sheetmetal bracket for supporting the silencer to the X shaped cross member. As we expect the lightening holes in the cross member are drilled in the first chassis we have indicated the support arranged accordingly. In future it might be better to design the support and make the holes suit. This is only intended to be a sketch, as we have not verified the exact position of the holes, angle of the cross, etc., and hope that you will reset it out. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
