Re Shock Absorbers on Rear Brakes [strikethrough] Springs [handwritten] - X.189

Mr Nadin 11-4-13

Kindly note that Mr Royce in
his memo R8/B7413, which you have,
recommends that shock absorbers be can-
celled for rear brakes [strikethrough] Springs [handwritten]. Mr Wormald
and Mr Nadin also agree and Mr Platford
remarks :-

"I suggest the above should be done
"in combination with rear springs which
"are put together dry [underlined] - should not be
"greased."

p. A.{Mr Adams} Wormald.
