Wasn?t there also a source for a set of modified metal brake pipes where one end threads into the metric Toyota calipers and the othe end threads into the standard Triumph flexible brake hose?

  Headlamp or turn signal switch.  Might be from an old Triumph
motorcycle?  Anyone got any ideas?

Yes,

Very similar to the switch on my 74 T140V. Maybe earlier but Triumph 
motorcycle for sure.

judging by the wiring colors, it's a horn and headlamp switch

Subject: [TR] TR4A W/W Motor & Switch
Message-ID: <037d01d75a3b$b57c6e00$20754a00$@bell.net>

I had a dead short in the W/W motor for my 67 TR4A. I sourced and installed
a reconditioned Lucas Two Speed DR3A (75568). The reconditioned motor works
BUT the first pull of the switch does nothing. Pulling to the second
position on the switch starts the motor turning the wipers. The original
switch is wired such that pin 7 goes to ground (as does the ground wire on
the motor case). The Red/Green wire on the motor goes to pin 8 on the
switch. The Brown/Green wire on the motor goes to pin 4 on the switch. The
Green wire on the motor goes to power.

 

One other problem, after the wipers park, on power up the wiper spindles
rotate downward toward the cowl (counter clockwise when looking at the
spindles). I was going to adjust the parking switch cup 180 degrees to
rectify this problem, but before doing so thought I would ask here in case
there is something incorrect about the wiring that might also be causing the
movement problem.

I recently shipped a car from MI to NY and used Horseless Carriage.  They were excellent, but now I want to take a car to Florida, they tell me they do not cover this route.  The only company I was able to find was Applewood Motorcar Transport out of WV.  They gave me a reasonable price, but since I haven?t yet shipped a car, I cannot comment on them.

 

I?d also be happy for any suggestions or feedback from anyone who has used Applewood.

Thank you Andrew for the two names. I will see what I can find out for
Applewood Motorcar Transport from WV and revert.

My wife used Horseless with very good results to & from PA to CA in the
late 90s.

In touch with more info & best to you in MI, Ted

Thanks Glenn!

Makes good sense - both cars were my father's - his purchased new XK8 and a
'92 VDP that I found for him. While their BB value is not stunning, both
cars are wonderful examples of Jaguar build quality and both have high
sentimental value with his recent passing.

I will get quotes from Passport & Reliable as we do want it done correctly.
If I wasn't so up to my ass in alligators with our recently acquired
biotech, I'd fly down with Paul's grandson & drive them back.

Thank you! Ted

Message-ID: <CAK23-wcz6zgkFPQiafiriW=XsSw7FVUT-sPxnYt3Ysnu_XW_mQ@mail.gmail.com>

I am looking for classic car insurance that does not require garaged
conditions which my TRs enjoy with Condon Skelly.

Hegarty brought back a policy quote for my 90s Jag VDP sedan and beater
(very beater but mechanically a peach) Porsche 944 that was very affordable.

Are there any other classic car insurances groups offering insurance for
classics that are outside during the year that offer an excellent VQPR -
value & quality price ratio?

Thank you in advance to the group, Ted

Anyone recommend a shop to reline a set of 9? brake shoes?  For a 62 Hillman Minx, but you are the only group I know to ask ?

The local brake/clutch reliner closed 4 years ago.

I?ve been told the shoes are the same as a very early TR2, but I don?t know that for a fact.

Thanks,

Cliff

You might check with Ted at TSI (http://www.tsimportedautomotive.com <http://www.tsimportedautomotive.com/>).

I know they do some performance relining of TR7/TR8 shoes, but I would assume the process isn?t model specific.

I used B&A Friction Materials in San Jose. 408-286-9200. I went in person and it seems they were acquired right after I was there so no idea what services they currently offer. But could be worth a phon call.

I had a dead short in the W/W motor for my 67 TR4A. I sourced and installed
a reconditioned Lucas Two Speed DR3A (75568). The reconditioned motor works
BUT the first pull of the switch does nothing. Pulling to the second
position on the switch starts the motor turning the wipers. The original
switch is wired such that pin 7 goes to ground (as does the ground wire on
the motor case). The Red/Green wire on the motor goes to pin 8 on the
switch. The Brown/Green wire on the motor goes to pin 4 on the switch. The
Green wire on the motor goes to power.

 

One other problem, after the wipers park, on power up the wiper spindles
rotate downward toward the cowl (counter clockwise when looking at the
spindles). I was going to adjust the parking switch cup 180 degrees to
rectify this problem, but before doing so thought I would ask here in case
there is something incorrect about the wiring that might also be causing the
movement problem.

++++++++++++

I did not receive any responses, other than to request the source of my
motor rebuild, but further research and trouble-shooting has revealed that
the wiring connections I had found were incorrect. The only wiring details I
had found is what I described above, based on:



As I described above, this did not work as expected. On the Triumph Register
site, I found a post by Alan Turner that suggested the correct wiring for
the switch is pin 4 to ground, brown/light green to pin 6 and red/light
green to pin 7. With this setup, the first pull of the switch powers the
wiper motor at the slow speed and the second pull provides the fast speed.

 

Now all I need to do is remove the whole unit again so that I can rotate the
parking switch cover 180 degrees.

 

Hope this helps anyone else working on the same issue as there appears to be
conflicting information out there.

I had the brake shoes relined for my Porsche 356 at Capitol Brake and Clutch in West Sacramento, CA.  Take/ship them the drums and shoes. New linings on shoes, drums turned and then shoes arched to drums. Drums must be within legal limits after turning.

Keith,

I'm sorry I wasn't able to reply sooner - and I didn't really have 
anything to add. This is excellent detective work!

In my garage, I have an oversized TR4A schematic on the wall. It is the 
only place I have seen any documentation of the two-speed motor, and it 
took me a while to figure out where I found it. There's a very bad 
reproduction in the 1988 "Triumph TR2-4A Catalogue" from TRF - but you 
can't even read the colors there. I finally found that mine comes from 
the Bentley version of the TR4-4A workshop manual, which includes the 
TR4A differences in the first section, the "Driver's Operating Manual", 
including the entire schematic.

BUT ... this schematic does not include the pin numbers, which as you 
learned (and I had learned and forgotten) are critical.

Best,
chris

I've used Pacific Brake Bond in Monterey Park, CA. They were fast and friendly, and did a thorough job by bonding new material to the shoes and re-arching to the drums. Reasonably priced too.

Thanks everyone, a number of good options!

The owner of this Minx is a 17-year-old with boundless enthusiasm, limited funds, and no experience. I?m having a blast helping him out.

He reminds me of myself. Except for the pink-dyed crewcut hair. That?s all him.

Hi Keith,I thought 1st notch on the wiper switch was HIGH (to get the motor running) and 2nd notch was LOW.I just sent you some collected windshield wiper info from some years ago - directly to your email address - hope it helps!Regards,Carl'63 TR4 since '74

I found a post by Alan Turner that suggested the correct wiring for
the switch is pin 4 to ground, brown/light green to pin 6 and red/light

wiper motor at the slow speed and the second pull provides the fast speed.

Cliff,
Sounds like my first car, ?58 Hillman Minx, limited funds.  Split a piston, changed out just that piston in the driveway, in situ. 
Thanks for being there to help.

I put one on my 62 TR 3B.  Works great!  However, quite expensive.  I
believe I paid over $500.  I had just received a nice tax return.

     I bought one from British Parts Northwest several years ago (they are
out of stock now). Worked good until my car overheated and somehow took the
alternator with it. I seem to recall paying about $200 for it originally.
Took it to an alternator shop and had it rebuilt for about $160. It ran for
about one thousand miles and then died again. I switched it over to a GM
10si unit from Triumphs Rescue. No complaints other than it is ugly and took
some grinding on the case to make it fit.

     I see the Dynalites for sale on Ebay for serious money. Good luck.
     Too bad those original 1980 Ford Fiesta German Bosch alternators are so
hard to find now.

One of the side panels needs to be repaired. Looks like it was applied with heat. Any ideas for repairing it since the top does not come off.

 As I recall, the early TR6 used the same starter as did the TR250...and the GT6 and Spitfire, namely the M35J. Later TR6s used a different starter.

I have a very early TR4 and am looking for 667-420  CLIP, horn push
retaining  TR4-4A see
https://mossmotors.com/triumph-tr2-3-4/suspension-steering/steering-tr4-4a
part #5.

 

I am hoping that one of you who have changed to a wood steering wheel or
something might have this part.  Yes, I can order it from Moss, but shipping
about doubles the cost of the part.

Unless I miss my guess, that piece is used on Spitfires, Heralds, Vitesses, GT6's and probably other Triumphs of the same vintage.  So I am sure someone has one.  


I looked in my stash and came up empty.

 The TR7 had an Fully Automatic Starting Device (FASD) which was a small carb that fed extra air and fuel to the intake while the engine was warming up.? I guess they worked OK when they worked right.? I have no direct experience.? 

The TR8 had a water heated choke (enrichment device actually) that worked in a similar manner as the manual chokes (enrichment devices actually) with which we are all familiar.? On my TR8, as was typical with most carbed carbs with automatic chokes) it either ran too rich or too lean under certain circumstances.? I remember once I played heck trying to start the car after a snow storm in Lymon, CO.? But it usually worked OK otherwise.

Later Spitfires had them.? When it was working I was happy with it, But 
it was kind of a big add on thing and at least on mine the screws kept 
pulling out and ruining the holes.? Tried everything to fix it.? Finally 
gave up and replaced carb.

yes.? The TR7 had an auto choke. Yes if clean and properly adjusted they 
DO work!
I rebuilt minr on a TR7 I restored. It ran well. Then I fiddled with it 
a bit too much and managed to crack a piece i could repair?? :-(

(dumbass move on my part)

List:
I am refreshing my 72k orig mile 67 TR4A IRS.  Decided to put on a new set
of Dayton wire wheels for a Triumph TR250 or TR6. These are the BEST wire
wheels out there and still Made in America! 72 spoke, 15 x 6 inch TUBELESS
design. You do not need inner tubes. I bought these for my Triumph TR4A but
they did not look right (too wide) and actually caused a rubbing of the top
center front inner fender that cut a groove in the new tire.  Didn't effect
the wire wheel.  I was surprised as these say they fir the 250.  I decided
to dismount the tires since the the 4A has 4.5 inch rim width but I thought
these would be ok on a 4A. 

I installed new tires on them and put them on the 4A and drove 1 mile and
back into the garage. Took them off and had tires dismounted. They have no
scratches or curb rash and look like they did when they came out of the
original Dayton boxes. Still have the red stickers on the front of wheel
that are to be removed by tire dealer. Unfortunately, my tire install shop
threw the boxes away so I do not have them anymore. They will come in the
Rota alloy wheel boxes that I got when I bought new 15" alloys for my
Triumph TR8.

If you are looking for a great deal on a practically new perfect set of
Daton wire wheels, please contact me off list.  They are listed at the link
below.  Sorry to put this on the list but want to help out a fellow TR list
member who might like a deal and alert folks who might want to try similar
arrangements on their 4A.

I am now.  I bought 15 x 4.5 chrome wires from British Wire Wheel.  They had a 20% off sale.   On the Dayton?s I had 205 65 15 as they have almost identical diameter as 165 80 15.  Jim

I went to 6? mini lites on my last TR3 but stayed with the 165/15 Vredesteins, on the advise of Ted Schumacher.  Worked a treat, more rubber on the ground, lighter weight, solid handling.

Nice. I think the 205s were just too much fir a 4a. I was concerned the 165 would be too narrow on a 6 inch rim and 185s are a lot mor expensive

I run 205/ 60 R15 tires on a TR4A which is lowered 1 inch with no
rubbing issues. They are mounted on 6" Panasport wheels. I'm thinking
your problem was wheel offset related and not the tire size. I'm aware
of several others who also run this size on TR250 and TR6 cars as
well.JVV

Jerry,
I think you are correct. One of our club members has same setup as you on his 250 without issue, which is why I thought the 6 inch wires would work.  Has to be the offset.  In any event all fixed now with the 4.5 inch width wires and 165 80 15 tires. Looks stock so I?m happy.  Will be happier if I can find a home for the nice Dayton?s.  
Cheers,
Jim

Ditto.

suggestion.... check out Rota RB wheels? MUCH cheaper than the 
Panasports and MUCH lighter, also DOT legal!
https://www.18racing.com/collections/rb?page=4 
<https://www.18racing.com/collections/rb?page=4>Sharper lines on the 
spokes, colors avail....

kinda' sucks (the web site) not as easy to find the fitment as before 
but the number is this the wheel size, you just need to find the right PCD


nfi, just a very happy customer. Had them on my Miatas, my MG, my 
Triumphs, even almost put them on my Vette!?? :-)

I love the Rotas and heard from vintage racers they like them too.  I have them on my 81 TR8 in 15 inch size and love the look. Jim

Subject: [TR] TR6 Cooling Fan on a TR4A
Message-ID: <062001d76b5d$df7f4730$9e7dd590$@gmail.com>

I saw a picture somewhere that had a red TR6 cooling fan on a TR4A.  I would
like to swap out my original four blade metal and have a spare TR6 red
blade.  Anyone done this? Won't know what I have there for mounting until I
pull the radiator to get recored.  I do not have a spare yellow blade fan.
Just curious what wisdom folks have learned on the list.
Thanks,

I have Konig Rewinds on my TR250, originally with 205/65-15s, now with
205-60s.  They are 7" wide.  You can still find them for a little over
$100, though I don't think you can get the silver color anymore, only the
dark.

No problem with tires or wheels on the back.  The front inner lip would rub
on the top end of the front suspension fulcrum at full lock in reverse
until I added spacers and ground down the end of the arms a little bit.

If I had to do it over again and cost was no object would probably go with
6" wheels and same size tires.

Prices have gone up a bit since my first set severla years ago, but for 
15 x 7 rims @14.2 lbs is pretty good!
I remember my first set, to the door (incld s/h) was somewhere around $560

18 racing just has the widest in stock collection or Rota's (as well as 
a ton of others)? They even stock the odd ball 3.75" (95.25mm)? Spitfire PCD

dooohl!? duh...same PCD on the TR7/TR8

I have Konig Rewinds on my TR250, originally with 205/65-15s, now with 205-60s.  They are 7" wide.  You can still find them for a little over $100, though I don't think you can get the silver color anymore, only the dark.

 

No problem with tires or wheels on the back.  The front inner lip would rub on the top end of the front suspension fulcrum at full lock in reverse until I added spacers and ground down the end of the arms a little bit.

 

If I had to do it over again and cost was no object would probably go with 6" wheels and same size tires.

I love the Rotas and heard from vintage racers they like them too.  I have them on my 81 TR8 in 15 inch size and love the look. Jim

Ditto.

suggestion.... check out Rota RB wheels  MUCH cheaper than the Panasports and MUCH lighter, also DOT legal!
https://www.18racing.com/collections/rb?page=4     Sharper lines on the spokes, colors avail....

kinda' sucks (the web site) not as easy to find the fitment as before but the number is this the wheel size, you just need to find the right PCD

 

nfi, just a very happy customer. Had them on my Miatas, my MG, my Triumphs, even almost put them on my Vette!   :-)

I run 205/ 60 R15 tires on a TR4A which is lowered 1 inch with no rubbing issues. They are mounted on 6" Panasport wheels. I'm thinking your problem was wheel offset related and not the tire size. I'm aware of several others who also run this size on TR250 and TR6 cars as well.

Nice. I think the 205s were just too much fir a 4a. I was concerned the 165 would be too narrow on a 6 inch rim and 185s are a lot mor expensive

I did this on a TR3 using the TR6 fan hub.  The fan appeared to be cut down
or not from a TR6. Much better airflow than the stock metal blade unit.

Subject: [TR] TR6 Cooling Fan on a TR4A

I saw a picture somewhere that had a red TR6 cooling fan on a TR4A.  I would
like to swap out my original four blade metal and have a spare TR6 red
blade.  Anyone done this? Won't know what I have there for mounting until I
pull the radiator to get recored.  I do not have a spare yellow blade fan.
Just curious what wisdom folks have learned on the list.
Thanks,
Jim Henningsen

I have a TR4 Tropical Fan on the shelf I would sell, but not cheap.

I seem to remember that all the Dayton tubeless wire wheels are wider than
stock wheels.
