| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} x7840 BY/Cghll/G.16.4.29. S.S. CHASSIS WEIGHTS. ------------------- With reference to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rml/LG.15.4.29. to enable us to estimate the road spring poundages correctly we require to have the following information in addition to that already given :- 1/- Complete chassis weight (a) At Front. (b) At rear. 2/- Unsprung weights, front and rear. The above will then enable us to get the correct distribution of the fixed chassis weights. BY/Cgh.{W Clough} | ||
