COMFORT, KEY TO
THE 1896 FORD VS.
Refinements Will Add to Enjoyment
of Car by Driver and =
Passengers " ,.---z

Comfort, which played so large a
part in making the 1885 Ford va
the largest selling motor car in the
world, is the keynote of many re-
finements in the 1886 car, accord
ing to E. C. Smith, local Ford deal
er. .r.s
Correct Engineering
Ford va comfort, he pointed out,
is not the result Of any one, or two,
or three features but is the sum
of correct engineering with the thot
always in mind that the ease of
driver and passengers is essential.
In the 1895 car the engine was
moved forward, springs were tapered
and made longer and more flexible
and were carried out closer to the
wheels, the "springbase" was ex-
tended, and seats were moved for
ward SO passengers were better CEN
tered in the car. ; These major
changes in design, with four double
acting shock absorbers and deep,
luxurious upholstery, gave ''the
front seat ride for back seat passen-
gers" - ~ 49, 4"
No major change in chassis design
has been found desirable in the
1886 Ford V-8, and the attention of
Ford engineers has been directed to
refinements intended to increase
ease of operation and more silent
operation at all speeds. To this end
all speeds are now quiet through the
adoption of quiet, helical gears in
the transmission for all speeds,
three forward and one reverse. Such
gears, were formerly used only in
second and high speeds. .-.& .,...
Drive Shaft Balanced
To improve the silent operation
of the rear axle, new methods of
aligning and balancing the drive
shaft have been adopted. The
amount of unbalance possible is
practically nil, and there is virtu-
ally no whipping" of the shaft at
any car speed. ...s...s -sss. q.
New silencing materials are used
in the dash, floor, sides and rear
panel of the welded steel body.
These were chosen after an inten-
sive study with electrical sound

Ease of steering, especially at
medium and low speeds and while
parking the car, has been greatly
improved by the adoption of a IT.
toll steering ratio, instead of 15-to-
l, and the application of small,
straight roller bearings on the Sec
tor shaft of the steering gear. The
teeth of the worm and sector in the
steering gear are now being ground

ing friction. It is estimated the eff
fort required in steering has been
decreased more than Is percent.
