For stuff like this I go to Rock Auto and get manufacturers parts numbers
from there you can see what else they fit. As I recall Triumph used the
same U joint through the TR6, and looking on Rock Auto numbers the Moog 344
was fit to a lot of more modern cars including some Volvos, so fighting
chance you local parts house will have it even if their computer doesn't
spit much out if you put "Triumph TR3" in the search field.
The response I get when I tell them I have a Triumph TR250 is usually "who
makes that?". But still not as confusing as when I had a BMW 2002 "what
kind of 2002 BMW do you have sir?"

<p>Question are the U-joints common off the shelf parts or something
that needs to be ordered from a TR specialty supplier? Is this
something I need to order or can a shop get it from a local auto
parts house? Replacing them is no longer something I can do
myself.<br>
