H are more than twenty in all ? an unusually large num
\ ber. Each bearing-is adequate in size and carefully"
selected for the work it has to do.
At some points in the Ford chassis yon will find ball y
bearings. At others, roller bearings are used regardless
| of their higher cost. ^The deciding factor is the per*
formance of the car. k, MtU-v
1 The extensive use of ball and roller bearings in the
new Ford insures smoother operation, saves gasoline,
increases speed and power, gives quicker pick-up, de.
creases noise, and gives greater reliability and longer life
i to vital moving parts.
I, Other outstanding features that make the new Ford
glass windshield, silent, fully enclosed four-wheel brakes,
four Hoqdaille double-acting hydraulic shock absorb*
I ers, aluminum pistons, chrome 'silicon alloy valves,
j three-quarter floating rear axle, Rustless Steel, the exi
tensive use of fine steel forgings, and unusual accuracy
