Therocker box is between the two bars ofwhich the frame front is composed andacts as a very substantial filler. Theframe splicing presents interesting fea-tures as will be seen in our the main frame has all the usualbrake hanger brackets replaced by verticalbars forged solid, being in fact parts ofthe frame itself. The pin hole in the secured with 1-2-inch studs and are lippedover the sides so that the spring hangerscannot rub or cut into the frame at anypoint.
