The first step is to remove the radiator.? That is necessary be make room to remove the fan assembly and the access the bolt that secures the pulley.? Once the pulley is out you then remove the timing chain cover since the oil seal is installed from the inside.? 

If you go to Roadster factory:? https://trf.zeni.net/TR6bluebook/13.php? you will need AF17 cover gasket and AF20 oil seal.? Note that the seal seals up against a sleeve that will come out with the pulley.? Odds are there is a groove worn into this sleeve where the seal rides.? This is from the grit that embeds itself into the seal and grinds away at the steel sleeve.? The oil seal's effectiveness is dependent on this sleeve having a smooth surface which will no longer be there.? I suggest you replace this sleeve as well.
https://trf.zeni.net/TR6bluebook/17.php? AJ22.? The alternate is to buy a Speedi Sleeve(r) to present a new, smooth surface for the seal but the Speedi Sleeve(r) will cost more.
Assembly is the reverse of the above.? Pay attention to the timing chain tensioner and make sure it is positioned properly.? 

Depending on how many miles you have on your car, how much confidence you have in your mechanic abilities and how susceptible you are to Shipwright's disease, you may want to replace the timing chain while you are at it.

BIG NEWS ?? about the NEC Classic Motor Show this weekend ?

*Meet the designers of the Triumph TR25 concept car at the NEC Classic
Motor Show this weekend, on the TR Register Car Club stand!*
<https://tr-register.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=52156e2726fd114a58b4aa2d7&id=70beb2faf0&e=5969ad9099>

The exciting new concept car that has revived the Triumph name, the Triumph
TR25, will be on display at the NEC Classic Motor Show on 10-12 November
2023 on the TR Register Car Club stand in Hall 4 with a chance to meet its
designers and learn more about the concept.

What?s more, is that the car will also be shown side by side with its
inspiration, MVC575, the Triumph TR2 which broke the land speed record for
production cars under two litres in May 1953.

The display will be a rare opportunity for the public to see this unique
car outside of its usual residence at the British Motor Museum, Gaydon.

Earlier this year, and during the centenary celebrations for Triumph, the
TR sports car made the headlines again with a new all-electric concept car,
created by leading automotive design house, Makkina named the 'TR25'.

Each day on the TR Register Car Club stand, motoring journalist Wayne Scott
will be interviewing members of the team of designers at Makkina who
conceived this future-looking vehicle with the blessing of BMW. Everyone is
welcome to come and join us as we explore how the project came to be by
discussing its inspiration, methodology, vision, and future.

*Join our interview sessions alongside the car in Hall 4 Stand 450: *


   - *Friday 14:30 ? *Wayne Scott interviews Jordan Gendler
   - *Saturday 13:30 ? *Wayne Scott interviews designer Yalim Erkaya
   - *Sunday 13:30 ? *Wayne Scott interviews designer Jordan Gendler


Both designers will be on hand on the stand throughout the day for
individual questions on the car.

*Director at Makkina, Michael Ani, said*: ?*The NEC Classic Motor Show is
the ideal place for the Triumph TR25 by Makkina to go on display. It gives
show-goers the chance to see our interpretation of a contemporary Triumph
design alongside its historic inspiration and amongst the enthusiasts and
experts who love the Triumph TR brand so dearly*.?

70 years after its record was secured and 100 years since the Triumph name
first appeared on a production car, Triumph returns to the headlines under
a different name and sporting a new, modern design direction as the Triumph
TR25 by Makkina. With a deep-rooted commitment to craftsmanship and
innovation, UK-based design house Makkina has created the TR25 to embody
the record-breaking car?s attributes in a contemporary way with realistic
proportions that remain true to the Triumph brand.

*Come and celebrate the remarkable achievement and be a part of history at
the NEC Classic Motor Show. You can find the TR Register Car Club stand in
Hall 4 Stand 450. *

I have  a Stag engine here in the USA and folks have said to pour  this
stuff into each cylinder.

it over.

 That looks like the one.
I assume you're going to rebuild it?? Put at least 1oz in each cylinder and rotate the engine so the fluid can cover the top of the piston.? Let it sit a few day then rotate so the other side can be fully covered.
Alternatively, you can fill the cylinders to soak.? It just takes a lot more.

Thanks for that Don. I think I?m probably the nearest (30 minutes drive) but I don?t plan to attend. The entry fee is a rip off, it?s the NATO defence budget to park your car and if I had the misfortune to be asked (highly unlikely) what I thought of the Triumph concept car, my response would be unprintable. In fact, I think I?d go out of my way to avoid seeing it.

 

So I shall stay at home and enjoy a very special bottle of French Burgundy and not give much thought to the wheel-kickers at the NEC. If anyone else on the list is likely to be there, I hope they enjoy the moment.

Thanks for that Don. I think I?m probably the nearest (30 minutes drive) but I don?t plan to attend. The entry fee is a rip off, it?s the NATO defence budget to park your car and if I had the misfortune to be asked (highly unlikely) what I thought of the Triumph concept car, my response would be unprintable. In fact, I think I?d go out of my way to avoid seeing it.

So I shall stay at home and enjoy a very special bottle of French Burgundy and not give much thought to the wheel-kickers at the NEC. If anyone else on the list is likely to be there, I hope they enjoy the moment.

Meet the designers of the Triumph TR25 concept car at the NEC Classic Motor Show this weekend, on the TR Register Car Club stand!




[https://mcusercontent.com/52156e2726fd114a58b4aa2d7/images/85ba5ece-acb3-c4b4-9556-868c156c962d.jpg]<https://tr-register.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=52156e2726fd114a58b4aa2d7&id=70beb2faf0&e=5969ad9099>




The exciting new concept car that has revived the Triumph name, the Triumph TR25, will be on display at the NEC Classic Motor Show on 10-12 November 2023 on the TR Register Car Club stand in Hall 4 with a chance to meet its designers and learn more about the concept.

What?s more, is that the car will also be shown side by side with its inspiration, MVC575, the Triumph TR2 which broke the land speed record for production cars under two litres in May 1953.

The display will be a rare opportunity for the public to see this unique car outside of its usual residence at the British Motor Museum, Gaydon.

Earlier this year, and during the centenary celebrations for Triumph, the TR sports car made the headlines again with a new all-electric concept car, created by leading automotive design house, Makkina named the 'TR25'.

Each day on the TR Register Car Club stand, motoring journalist Wayne Scott will be interviewing members of the team of designers at Makkina who conceived this future-looking vehicle with the blessing of BMW. Everyone is welcome to come and join us as we explore how the project came to be by discussing its inspiration, methodology, vision, and future.

Join our interview sessions alongside the car in Hall 4 Stand 450:


  *   Friday 14:30 ? Wayne Scott interviews Jordan Gendler
  *   Saturday 13:30 ? Wayne Scott interviews designer Yalim Erkaya
  *   Sunday 13:30 ? Wayne Scott interviews designer Jordan Gendler

Both designers will be on hand on the stand throughout the day for individual questions on the car.

Director at Makkina, Michael Ani, said: ?The NEC Classic Motor Show is the ideal place for the Triumph TR25 by Makkina to go on display. It gives show-goers the chance to see our interpretation of a contemporary Triumph design alongside its historic inspiration and amongst the enthusiasts and experts who love the Triumph TR brand so dearly.?

70 years after its record was secured and 100 years since the Triumph name first appeared on a production car, Triumph returns to the headlines under a different name and sporting a new, modern design direction as the Triumph TR25 by Makkina. With a deep-rooted commitment to craftsmanship and innovation, UK-based design house Makkina has created the TR25 to embody the record-breaking car?s attributes in a contemporary way with realistic proportions that remain true to the Triumph brand.

Come and celebrate the remarkable achievement and be a part of history at the NEC Classic Motor Show. You can find the TR Register Car Club stand in Hall 4 Stand 450.

That looks like the stuff, although my supply is so old that it's in a
metal can.  Might qualify as an antique by now.

It has a distinctive smell, which I find particularly pleasing.  What
the mystery is is indeterminate, but it won't do any harm to put some
in the cylinders and let it soak before you turn it over.  Don't use
too much if you plan to try and crank it up.

My automotives prof at university in the late 1970s called all those things
"gas house drip".  I've always liked that descriptive term.  It's
probably pretty accurate, too.

I can't imagine that there's any significant difference between any of
those products for what you're trying to do, Sujit.  I'd guess than any
non-drying oil would probably work.  (For long-term storage of my engines
I've usually used a good shot of SAE-30 in the spark plug holes -- enough
to fully wet the perimeter of each piston so the rings get fully wetted.
 If you can turn the engine, it would probably be good to move the valves
for a different combination of open and closed across the cylinders, so the
ones open to moisture have a chance to be kept free and cycle another set
of cylinders open to ambient.

There are two types of Crown Wheel & Pinion - 3.45:1 ratio - Collapsible
Spacer type - UKC547 and Crown Wheel and Pinion - 3.45:1 ratio - Solid
Spacer type - 516398 for the TR6 diff.
I don't have a TR6 but a Stag. Folks in the Stag community replace
their CW&P from a TR6 into a Stag diff.Some folks have gone as far as put a
TR6 diff in a Stag.

If you have a TR6 and have worked on your TR6 diff, are the diff cases the
same or are they different depending on the type of CW&P set you use?

 I'm getting ready to sell the 1965 Daimler, V8 2.5L, manual RHD. Where is the best place to sell that type of car?? BAT said, "no thanks".? She is a project car.? Runs well but needs new brakes and there are places where it has rusted through in the floor and a few other places.? The engine is a Chevy 350 V8.? One of those cars whose parts may be worth more than the whole.? Any advice is appreciated.

We used to make a cocktail of MMO, Acetone, and automatic trans fluid (???
could be in place of MMO) that we would pour into the old  stuck engines
that we came across....

I think there were some other lubricants/solvents in there as well :) but I
can't remember.   I remember one where I hung a cinder block from a cheater
pipe on the crank while it worked it's marvel magic. About a month later
the crank moved and the block was resting on the floor.   It did run, but
not well.  But was much easier to tear down vs stuck engine.

I can't answer your question on the CWP sizing and casing differences, but I have a Stag differential torn apart and was working on my TR6 differential this past summer.  The cases are different at the rear cover and the gasket and rear cover for one will not fit the other in one corner of the case.  Since the diff casing is a structural member of the Stag rear suspension subframe, you can't simply exchange one diff and casing for the other since the rear cover won't bolt up.

I had mine done at TRF but that was about 20 years ago. Not sure if they 
can still do that sort of work.

Dave;

I rebuilt or replaced every component of my TR3A steering assembly,
including the box, last year. The only part I didn't touch was the worm
gear in the box, though I replaced all the bearings on each end of the
worm. Despite every effort to make certain all parts were
within tolerances, installing shims in various combinations, I just
couldn't get the steering to feel right and the steering wheel required too
much effort. No doubt, better mechanics than I have succeeded here. I ended
up replacing the entire rack by pulling the front apron and radiator and
installing a Moss rack-and-pinion rack (Moss 667-248).. The steering now is
much easier and accurate.

Alternatively, you can have Macy's Garage rebuild your steering box for you
or follow their step-by-step instructions and brave it yourself.
https://macysgarage.com/stg-box-1.htm

Having said that, I note that it seems the price of British parts at Moss
and TRF have increased dramatically in the last 6-8 months.

Best of luck to you and Happy Thanksgiving!

Message-ID: <4AB1AF04-EDF5-43BA-B530-75A547754BBB@fuse.net>

Hi all,
First of all happy Thanksgiving to everyone on this side of the pond!
One to my question(s).
Over this last driving season, my steering column has developed a squeak every time I move it. Years ago during the restoration I had installed a set of The Roadster Factory nylon bushings in the column and I am pretty sure the squeak is coming from the top bushing on the column. Is white lithium grease OK on nylon my best route or is there a better lubricant?
Second question:
I have a Tourist Trophy steering wheel and horn push. Has anyone else with this setup had problems with the actual horn button popping off into your chest? If so, what is the fix?
Thanks,
Dave Connitt

I rebuilt the box in my TR3.  The worm gear was in good condition.  That might be the most difficult part to replace.  I replaced the bushing for the rocker shaft and added second bushing opposite to that one if I remember correctly.  It was recommended as an upgrade/improvement.  I had a machine shop hone the new bushing to size.  I replaced all other bits a pieces necessary and available.
My steering box works great.
However, I think the suggestion of sending yours to Macy's is a great idea.  I haven't worked with them, but they have a solid reputation and obviously care about what they do.

What car is this?? 
According to this site nylon is compatible with oil and grease.https://www.calpaclab.com/nylon-chemical-compatibility-chart/
My TR6 has a squeak in the steering but it is the carbon brush for the horn push.? I've yet to ponder how the cure that.

Measuring the factory attaching bolts on my 1958, they are 13.75? oc apart; 3.25? setback from the finished dash; center on the defrost vent opening.

Those holes are spaced for the Triumph accessory aero screens . I believe the Brooklands type require different spacing.

Thats ok.  I suspect there are numerous manufacturers.   This gives me a great baseline.   Once i actually buy the screens i can use  these measurements to help me get them where i want them.

Those holes are spaced for the Triumph accessory aero screens . I believe the Brooklands type require different spacing.

We are building a TR3 for autocross from a car that sat many years, fortunately inside.

The clutch/brake master is a rusted mess so it needs to be replaced.

Has anyone replaced that with the assembly from a TR4, for example?  Dual systems?  Is there any reason to do that?

There is a guy in the UK called Peter Wigglesworth who sells supports for the screens which utilize the original holes for the Brooklands.

Many years ago there was a guy in Indiana who fitted a TR6 braking system in his TR3B, booster, dual circuit and all.? I don't have any details but it is doable and probably a good idea.

TR3S/XHP939 tribute car.  This car, which Paul has now sold, competed at
the LeMans Classic and Goodwood Members Meeting, among others.

Agreed. It should be doable in a low-buck way if you do t all
yourself. What you are probably paying for is the cost of liability
insurance for the manufacturer.

I considered this setup, but when I saw the price...I decided to make my own.  I think my design is better for a few reasons.
1. The standard box compartment in the fire wall doesn't need to be modified.
2. A downward element of my design attaches through the brake/clutch pedal assembly adding no-lift, no-flex rigidity. 
3. It was an enjoyable project with minimal cost.
 
I think it worth separating the front and rear brake components.  By the late 1960s, most manufacturers made this standard.
 
Safety and adjustability is gained. Especially for high performance applications.

This is a TR3 race car with a simple duel brake master setup.
I think it might be a GT6 master.  It is in-line.  It protrudes into the firewall box compartment, so a modification there is required.  Still, much easier than making a completely new system.  This system is solid and reliable.

I considered this setup, but when I saw the price...I decided to make my own.  I think my design is better for a few reasons.
1. The standard box compartment in the fire wall doesn't need to be modified.
2. A downward element of my design attaches through the brake/clutch pedal assembly adding no-lift, no-flex rigidity. 
3. It was an enjoyable project with minimal cost.
 
I think it worth separating the front and rear brake components.  By the late 1960s, most manufacturers made this standard.
 
Safety and adjustability is gained. Especially for high performance applications.

With respect, this is not exactly true. While probably all auto companies seeking sales in the US were bound to fit split circuit systems, there were many other markets (more than one hundred) which did not specify split circuits and, as such, cars going to them still had single circuits for quite a number of years into the seventies. It?s also important to remember that as far as UK car exports were concerned, sports cars overall accounted for only about 25% of total output. Firms like Morgan and TVR being the exception to this rule.
