JJC Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Would be grateful if someoine could let me know what the Lucas reference number is for the control box for a 62 TR4. It should have Lucar connectors. For some reason the one on my car doesn't fit the attachement holes in the body. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RAHTR4 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 The Lucas parts catalogue for June 1962 states as follows : Control box Model RB106-2 Part number 37290E Then on the next line it then states Control box (later) Model RB106-2 Part number 37283E For all subsequent years to 1966 the Control box listed is the Model RB106-2 Part number 37283E. Also this is the box I have on my 1964 TR4 and the fixing points do match those in the bodywork. Hope this helps in your search. Regards, Richard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PaulAnderson Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 My Lucas catalogue gives the same control box part numbers as mentioned above, but mine does not have the E suffix. Out of interest, what control box part number does the 4A use? Typically, the Lucas catalogue like others does not mention the TR4A. Regards, Paul. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RAHTR4 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Paul, The first mention of the TR4A is in the 1966 Lucas catalogue and it quotes the following for the control box : Model RB106-2 Part Number 37283E/F I do not know what the suffixes denote. The Lucas catalogues I have only cover the Triumph models for each year, used I presume by either the Lucas Branches or Triumph Dealers. Regards, Richard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RAHTR4 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Paul, It appears that only the suffix is different, i.e. F for the TR4 and E/F for the TR4A. I always thought that the TR4A was offered with an alternator as an optional extra and then became standard at the end of the production run, but now checking this in these Lucas Catalogues the parts are not listed?
