Hi Jerry. 
John, if you do lower the car with springs and the camber needs to be adjusted beyond the factory capabilities, RevingtonTR in the UK makes an adjustable upper fulcrum pin that allows much adjustment. You would not have to shorten the upper control arms. 
I have the kit on my TR3. It's a very good product. 
I saw a RevingtonTR kit on eBay recently, so check there first if it interests you. 
Also, if you'd like for information about RevingtonTR, check out their website. They sell some really neat performance parts. 

Good luck, 
Dave H.

I use the GoodParts 1" lower springs front and back. While the ride is 
acceptable to me other may say differently, a smooth ride is not what I've 
ever experienced in a TR, but that's OK with me. Best ride would be stock 
springs. If you do decide to go with the lower springs keep in mind you will 
need to do some modification to the upper front control arms to get the 
correct front camber adjustment. With no shims on the bottom I had too much 
positive camber, I needed to shorten the upper control arms to get a bit of 
negative camber.

Am replacing the original springs on my TR4A. Looking at what's available, 
one vendor is selling a 4 spring "high performance" kit that also lowers 
ride height about an inch. Is anyone using these springs? Also, there is a 
big difference in price for front and rear pairs of stock type springs from 
different vendors. Would greatly appreciate any comments, recommendations, 
etc. from anyone with experience with new springs. BTW, I'm looking for the 
best ride, am not competing.
