 ???? I just installed a set of NOS rear lever shocks on my TR3. I have 
had them about 25 years. When I took them out of the box, one of the 
shocks was full of oil and the other was dry. I filled that one with oil 
and installed them on the car. Dang! The empty one leaks slowly. I plan 
to send it off to World Wide Autoparts or Apple Hydraulics to be rebuilt.
 ???? I have hoped that maybe I just overfilled the shock and it will 
just leak to a certain point and then stop leaking. Probably naive on my 
part, but one can hope.
 ???? Question: Moss sells new hydraulic shocks for $199 or rebuilt 
shocks for $289 (+150 core charge). Does anyone have any experience with 
the "new" shocks? Are they "made in China"/County brand junk?
 ???? Is there a risk of just having one shock rebuilt? I would rather 
not send in the other NOS shock to be rebuilt if it is new. My theory is 
that I will get one shock rebuilt and if the car still drives fine then 
leave it at that. If it feels like the two rear shocks are different, 
then I'll send in the second shock to be rebuilt.
 ???? Are any of the shock rebuilders better than the others? Anyone 
have their shocks rebuilt at Apple Hydraulics or World Wide Auto Parts? 
Apple is $135 and World Wide is $85.

Totally go with world wide.  I've had them do numerous shocks.   Have them put in the heavy duty valve; it's just a little stiffer and worth it.

As long as you are ok with pulling the second shock,  sending it out,  and having the car down for that period.

My feeling is that the "good" shock won't be for long.   It won't make a difference in postage (use a usps priority mail box), the car will be down for the same period,  but you will be out an additional $85.  The "good" shock has sat for 25 years.   I think that's a bad bet.   Just my opinion

World Wide Auto Parts is the best! I've had them rebuild 3 sets of shocks and they come back bullet-proof. Their standard upgraded should make the shocks last a lifetime.

You can have them do an exchange for already rebuild shocks, or have them rebuild yours and return them. I always do the latter as I like getting back what I sent.

I'd do both shocks at the same time. If the other 25 year old NOS shock doesn't leak now, it will, and I think it's best to have two "equal" shocks instead of one new and one old-new.

And I always prefer rebuilding original parts instead of buying new lower quality parts. Especially when there are experts out there who do top notch work. My two cents...

Joel Justin...

I always rebuild/replace any worn suspension parts in pairs.  Just makes sense, the other side may not be leaking but you want operating at equal strength.
My 2 cents,

What about the tube shock conversion from RATCO?  I read a really
positive article in a Vintage Triumph article somewhat recently.  It
goes against tradition, but perhaps a better solution.  I've been

Sherman,
That is a very original and usual suggestion.
I have never heard of this solution for a leaking lever shock.   Seems like a good, time-tested repair/service possibility.  
I have a set from World Wide.  All good.

Message-ID: <79E13FB4-5019-408B-BA32-6A0747EE9D3E@fuse.net>

Hi all,
I need suggestions on how to shim or increase the diameter of the knurled portion of my driver side wheel box until I get back from Watkins Glen next week. I have a set of original wheel boxes but there is no way I can get them swapped in before we leave this Thursday. For instance, Is there some type of shim stock/adhesive combination I could wrap around the knurled wheel on the wheel box?
Thanks,
Dave Connitt

I did a repair to a wheel box many years ago, and it is pretty distant
memory, but my recollection is that I didn't shim the knurled wheel (I have
no idea how that could be done) I shimmed the box so the cable was held
closer to the wheel. Material was in all likelihood an aluminum can cut to
fit.   As I recall the fix worked well enough to keep the wipers from
slipping the until the rest of the car oxidized beyond the point of safe or
practical use--i.e. a winter or two.

Alternatively, you may be able to bend the retaining plate so that it holds
the cable a little tighter.

Hi Dave,Have you thought about using Locktite for 'shafts' - don't recall exact labelling (it's not the typical threaded bolts/nuts kind of Locktite). That might do the job - although you might need to use a bit of fire to remove wiper arms later.

 Have you tried wrapping it with aluminum foil?? Not a permanent solution but you are not looking for one.

worst case you should not have to shim all the way around.... quick and 
dirty sacrifice.... local auto parts store ... buy a set of blade feeler 
gauges. The thinner gauges should make perfectly selectable shim stock 
to jam the blades in place. They should be thin enough to cut with a 
pair of scissors

What about a squirt of caulk? It should hold the wiper blade on until you get home, and be easier to clean off than other products.

Last week, I drove the 4A from Albuquerque NM to Breckenridge CO and back: 780 miles total with top down the entire trip. My passenger on this trip was a shoulder bag with a laptop, as I had work in Breckenridge for a few days (some one had to go ?). My route was through Santa Fe, Taos, NM/CO border, Alamosa, Buena Vista, Fairplay. Great scenery and a cool stop between Chimayo NM and Taos at the Classic Gas Museum.

My hearing, sun and wind protection worked admirably. It rained only once, after I had stopped for the night in Alamosa on the way home.

As far as improvements before the next trip:

  *   A footrest in place of the headlight dipper switch. I?ve got a scheme to use two relays to repurpose the flash-to-pass part of the light switch as both flash-to-pass and headlight dipper. Anyone have other ideas?
  *   A better heater/defroster fan. I can?t tell if it?s actually moving air. The motor is running based on current draw, so perhaps it?s missing weather-stripping or something inside that housing.
  *   Check the boot/trunk for sealing. The bag I put in there smelled of exhaust.

Life is too short to drive boring cars,

Cliff

Sorry, totally misunderstood the question.  Thought you were talking about
inside the wiper box.  Lots of answers, as noted you don't need something
to shim around the whole thing just jam in one one side should make it
tight enough.  Feeler guage stock, aluminum can, thin sheet brass
(available at hobby lobby or hobby Towne).  Alternative would be adhesives,
small hole and dowel or set screw (if you have sacrificial wiper arms too.

All,
In addition to the wiper arm slipping I found that the little tang on the inside of the arm that is supposed to clip underneath the knurled wheel of the wiper box is too high to actually clip under the wheel. I hope I am explaining this accurately.. 
After further investigation I found that if I turn in the wipers and hold the driver side wiper box, I can feel the knurled wheel skip. So I removed the driver side wheel box and the gear that is driven by the cable is definitely worn. I would prefer to find a decent original vs. installing a new one but I may have no choice as I scrounge through my spare parts bin.
T- minus a day and a half till we leave for Watkins Glen! 
No pressure!!

What about a squirt of caulk? It should hold the wiper blade on until you get home, and be easier to clean off than other products.

worst case you should not have to shim all the way around.... quick and
dirty sacrifice.... local auto parts store ... buy a set of blade feeler
gauges. The thinner gauges should make perfectly selectable shim stock
to jam the blades in place. They should be thin enough to cut with a
pair of scissors

We are about to embark on the final leg of a long journey in our 72 TR6.

In April we drove from Dallas to Tucumcari to Kingman to Vegas to Reno, and flew home.

In May I was in Reno for the Hot August Nights spring preview.

In August I was in Reno for Hot August Nights, the most out of this world excessive over the top car event I have ever witnessed/been part of.  Attached is a windshield shot from one of the cruise nights.

In two weeks we will drive from Reno to Bryce Canyon via ?The Loneliest Road in America? to 4 corners to the Rio Grande Valley British car club weekend event in Taos.  Then back home to Dallas.

4000 miles more or less

Subscribers to 6 Pack will be reading about these adventures for about the next year in their quarterly magazine.  Just the first leg would fill up an entire issue!

Hi Dave,
I tried using RainEx on the way back from the Kas Kastner race at Pitt Raceway and it wasn?t fun. I was discussing this with a good friend of mine this morning and he suggested that the reason we don?t hear about more of this is that most classic car owners don?t drive in the rain on purpose.
I have the bad wheel box out and will have my new one tomorrow morning.

I had the same annoyance with the footrest/dipper switch in my TR4. I cut a piece of 1/2" 9-ply birch plywood to 2-1/2" x 9". I painted it black and added a piece of no-slip rubber table to it. I removed the dipper switch and aligned the bottom edge to the plate the dipper switch mounted to. I mounted the dipper switch at the top. Now I've for a nice footrest and to activate the dipper, I reach up with my toe to push the switch.

Subject: [TR] First long road trip


Last week, I drove the 4A from Albuquerque NM to Breckenridge CO and back: 780 miles total with top down the entire trip. My passenger on this trip was a shoulder bag with a laptop, as I had work in Breckenridge for a few days (some one had to go ?). My route was through Santa Fe, Taos, NM/CO border, Alamosa, Buena Vista, Fairplay. Great scenery and a cool stop between Chimayo NM and Taos at the Classic Gas Museum.



My hearing, sun and wind protection worked admirably. It rained only once, after I had stopped for the night in Alamosa on the way home.



As far as improvements before the next trip:

  *   A footrest in place of the headlight dipper switch. I?ve got a scheme to use two relays to repurpose the flash-to-pass part of the light switch as both flash-to-pass and headlight dipper. Anyone have other ideas?
  *   A better heater/defroster fan. I can?t tell if it?s actually moving air. The motor is running based on current draw, so perhaps it?s missing weather-stripping or something inside that housing.
  *   Check the boot/trunk for sealing. The bag I put in there smelled of exhaust.



Life is too short to drive boring cars,



Cliff

On my street/race TR3, I designed a sturdy dead pedal where the dimmer bracket went and moved the dimmer to the dash.  The dimmer button is a miniature of the standard switch.  The dimmer switch is at the far left on my dash.  Turn signal below the heater control and horn button on the other side of the column.  Keeping the dimmer as foot switch is a more natural position.

In August I was in Reno for Hot August Nights, the most out of this world excessive over the top car event I have ever witnessed/been part of.  Attached is a windshield shot from one of the cruise nights.

In two weeks we will drive from Reno to Bryce Canyon via ?The Loneliest Road in America? to 4 corners to the Rio Grande Valley British car club weekend event in Taos.  Then back home to Dallas.

4000 miles more or less

Subscribers to 6 Pack will be reading about these adventures for about the next year in their quarterly magazine.  Just the first leg would fill up an entire issue!

Hi Marv,
A friend of mine mentioned he bought a set of original wiper arms for his Triumph TR4A from you and I was wondering if you might have another set you would consider selling?
Let me know.

My family lived in London, England in 1977-78 during Queen Elizabeth's
Silver Jubilee - 25th anniversary.* It seemed quaint as an 8 year old to
witness the classic British monarchy's pomp & circumstance.

Fast forward to 2000 & the 21st century ~ anyone running a company or
leading any organization should recognize & highly admire the Queen's
dedication to the mission, its goals, what is true north and right, how to
truly stick at it & never give up - all the while working like a trooper ~
royal or not.

It is this devotion, her goals, mission and massive amounts of British
stick that I will always admire.

Her values & peers with equay lofty goals kept me going as we soldiered on
since 2011.

God save the Queen & may her values, attitude & actions live long in the
United Kingdom & its many Commonwealth nations & current & ex-territories.

* and the final years of British motorcars like TR.

Soda cans make great shims.? You can cut with regular scissors and fold 
to make it thicker.

I have been to the park - my kids lived in South Bend for a while so up there often.

It is pretty cool - the tree letters are so big they have signs denoting which letter you are by.
From the air it is impressive, but from the ground it is kind of mind boggling.
There is still one of the old mansions on the property as well - but not open to the public.

Is the stock TR6 valve rocker ratio 1.45:1 or 1.55:1???? I'll go with the consensus...? Dave

Hello Patrick,

The Stag brakes are ok for a 50 year old car. Just wondering if you up
grade the rear, are you going to upgrade the fronts to match?

GoodParts sells a master brake cylinder that allows you to adjust the front rear bias.  That might be a good next step.  I don?t think the fronts really need to be upgraded.  I?m not sure the rears needed to be upgraded either.  The car stops really well as is.

you can upgrade the pads in the front (and rear  if you added disk brakes)

Probably the easiest upgrade is new tires.  Wider, stickier tires will improve both handling and stopping

Hi All

    I received my Goodparts rear CV axles.  While I have the rear
brakes removed, I'm thinking about a rear disk brake conversion. Who
makes those kits?

   While working on replacing the rear axles, I was able to install my
CV driveshaft I bought a zillion years ago :-)

TIA

I?m not so sure about that.  the front does the majority of the stopping so in theory you should balance the front/rear stopping.  The only way I know to do that is with an adjustable master brake cylinder

Hello Patrick,

The Stag brakes are ok for a 50 year old car. Just wondering if you up grade the rear, are you going to upgrade the fronts to match?

Hi All

    I received my Goodparts rear CV axles.  While I have the rear
brakes removed, I'm thinking about a rear disk brake conversion. Who
makes those kits?

   While working on replacing the rear axles, I was able to install my
CV driveshaft I bought a zillion years ago :-)

TIA

I had two hubs rebuilt by a fellow in San Louis Obisbo.  He was recommended
by folks on the TR6 FB forum. He converted one  staked hub into a non
staked hub. Cost was about 300$. I have 2 Stags. If I had one I would have
bought cv type shafts.
