SOME DISTINGUISHED ADVICE TO PURCHASERS OF AUTOMOBILE

'che housing much weight is taken off the
driving part.
In this type OF drive a torsion rod = re-
quired. This extends from the gear case
or from a crosspiece OF the frame TO the
rear axle. The necessity Tor the torsiou
rod arises from the tendency of the drivins,
bevel gear 10 rol around on the driven
bevel scar. instead OF driving it, The tor
sion rod prevents. therefore, a continuous
strain on the parts. II being the tendency
OF the axle housing To revolve around the
axle instead of vice versa There is a fieX-
ible JOINT at one end OF the torsion rod
permitting 1t To give 10 the varying move
ments of the axle, but retaining the axle
housing in the correct position.
In the double chain drive system. ap-
piled To- many high powered cars, the bevel
gears that change the direction in which
the power is applied are contained in the
gear case that holds the change speed
