WRAITH ENGINE REAR SUSPENSION.

We have now tested the rear engine mounting large torque rubbers as shown on OCD.714, and consider them satisfactory for production cars, we should therefore like you to issue the necessary instructions to all concerned.

Please note the drilling modifications and alteration to Die-cast bracket shown on OCD.714. The durometer hardness of the rubber should be 45°.
