According to the factory parts catalogue, the TR4A did not use a return
spring as the earlier TRs did. Instead it used the same arrangement as the
later cars, with a spring inside the clutch slave that effectively makes the
clutch self-adjusting (by holding the piston out against the pushrod).
If you do want to convert to the earlier setup, I would suggest buying a new
spring. They are very stiff and tend to get weak and/or break with age. I
seem to have to replace mine every 10 years or so (in fact I just ordered
another one a few weeks ago).
FWIW, TRF also has the plate listed as available, P/N 106347 $2.95.
