Something that Addco is apparently not very good at making clear ... their
"TR3" front swaybar kit only fits TR3A and TR3B. If you're trying to fit it
to a TR2 or TR3, then you will have to fabricate a mounting bracket (as
shown). For the later cars it will bolt to the bumper mounts (where mine
is), but the 3A has different mounts than the smallmouth TRs do.
I believe their listing is also wrong where it says the TR3B takes the same
rear bar as a TR4. I've never put a rear bar on a TR3B, but I don't know of
any reason the TR3A bar won't fit. And the TR4 rear bar will not fit a TR3A
without modification.
However, when I got the wrong rear bar through JC Whitney, I contacted Addco
directly and they solved my problem. That was a long time ago, perhaps they
wouldn't do it today, but it's worth a try. They shipped me the TR3A rear
brackets (without requiring I return the TR4 ones) and told me how to bend
the bar I had to suit my car.
