WITH the exception of the passenger $1` chassis, all Thames Trader models and Thames 1+to 4-ton semi-forwardcontrol vehicles are now available with Laminaire progressive steel springs as optional equipment. This development is the result of work carried out by Ford's in conjunction with the makers of the Laminaire type of spring, William E. Carey, Ltd., Manchester.
Because of the progressive action given by the Laminaire design, this type of suspension gives good ride characteristics when the vehicle is unladen, with subsequent benefit in respect of body, cab and chassis life.
