1. [TR] TR6 A-Type OD in TR3? (score: 1): Author: "Creig Houghtaling" <oldtoys@charter.net>; Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2006 19:11:31 -0600; Can a TR6 A-Type overdrive transmission be used in a TR3?

Have to make some minor mods, like new holes in the rear crossmember and some massaging of the transmission tunnel, but it works slick.

What is different is only that the front flange of the TR6 transmission is thicker, so some of the fasteners need to be longer. It's; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00539.html (7,390 bytes)

I should have mentioned to avoid confusion, that I have a good a-type TR6 tranny and OD unit. I was just wondering if it would work in a TR3. Let me see if I understand.

I'm not sure of the measurements offhand, but ISTR I drilled two holes about 5/16" in diameter and about 5/8" farther back than the existing holes. Maybe someone else can chime in here ?

On a TR3, the rear crossmember is a separate piece, just a flat sheet of metal roughly 10" by 5". My personal opinion is that if you've ev; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00548.html (8,964 bytes)
