Hi Peter, John, Dick
The article on Gearbox Cover Overhaul on the BuckeyeTRIUMPHS website shows
photos of some of the different caps and pins used on the TR gearboxes. If
interested, go to following link, click on "Technical" and then article on
Gearbox Cover. The stuff on the caps is near the end.

BTW, I've had to use a punch on the lower edge of some caps to free them
from the top cover casting. Corrosion.
