OK thanks Roger, that's very kind.

Cheers Rob

Hi Roger, sorry to resurrect this old thread but do you have a link to a 5/16 helicoil set suitable for the trailing arm? There seem to be loads on ebay but I'm not sure if any of them are any good. Cheers Darren

I wish I had the facilities to do so!

These are the best ones I've found in the UK. https://www.med-engineering.co.uk/ancillaries/stub-stacks/med-stub-stacks They work well inside a deeper airfilter.

Thanks Roger that seems a good price for what appears to be a substantial piece of kit!

Hi All, can anyone recommend a reasonable u-joint press tool that works/fits OK on the TR drive shaft universal joints? Cheers Darren

These people are very good: https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/enduroline/069/

That's probably the one that was made by Tim Walker a former TRR member, sadly no longer with us now. Works really well.

These are a bit cheaper. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIUMPH-TR4A-TR5-TR6-STAINLESS-STEEL-HS6-SU-CONE-AIR-FILTER-GASKET-SCREWS-/284039671461?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292

Yes but you will need to remove the ashtray for the top gauges.

But much better value than those ones sold by Moss!

Hi Mark what carbs are they? It could possibly be a seal on the float chambers or the pipe going in. Have you checked everything is tightened up properly.

There's another thread in the general technical area which debates all this at length.

I've got JBW ones that are 6j, but I have 185 tyres. These fit fine. I guess if you're running 165 tyres then 5.5j would be better.
