The rebuild that goes one step foward two back!

Hello Nick, With a lot of luck we will now have a few photo's. 1st photo is bump stop and it's mount.(at base of ruler) Shiny circular part on far right of second photo is brake drum, Dark bit at bottom of third photo is back of brake drum. Other two are underside of trailing arms. Regards, Michael. -

Hello Nick, Great to catch up (sorter). Will take a few more photo's of mine tomorrow and see if I can download them. Have some back there somewhere as well. My cracks were before ANY upgrades, and the bump stops are getting lots of use and are completely different to the "missing" one in your picture. Will talk more when I get photo's sorted. Regards, Michael. -

Hello, I have been again to Pheasant Wood, and am entered for Wakefield Park (One Raceway) on the 3-12-'25, also our Christmas party! Was looking under the rear and I spotted what may be ANOTHER crack in the r/h trailing arm! Talk soon. Regards, Michael. Will try and get a photo or two. -

Hello Colin, Thank you. I am going to print a few words about the carb trip. I thought I had asked a question on here about my choice of fuel/air supply (2x2" S U's )but can't find it so may have to start again. Regards, Michael. -
Hello, would have been interesting to hear the outcome of this experiment ! I have done something similar + 2x2" S U 's. on a TR6. Regards, Michael.

Hello Colin, Just a little update. The manuals have proven very useful. I now have a nicely running TR6 (also with a lot of help from the bloke who used to run a dyno in Canberra for 30 odd years) regards Michael. -
Heart over head - Have I done the right thing ?…….

The rebuild that goes one step foward two back!
michaeljf replied to michaeljf's topic in Triumph TR Series
Hello All, Nick, three but the first one is not counted. The motor IS good so it was time to do something to the suspension as it was as bad as the motor. THE motor a bit more on that later. I have been "lucky"? so far with that, so far the only things I have had to pay for are the Super Pro bits and the corner weight wheel alignment. Hamish, I am thinking exactly like you. The car is also my road car! Colin, the first one is the revamped "Wakefield Park" and the next two are "Pheasant Wood" (named after a place in France, more to that story). Regards, Michael. -
