Everything is off the front suspension of my son's 73 TR6.  
Thanks to your ideas and lots of digital pictures, we might 
get it put back together after painting.

Two pieces are still giving us a bit of trouble.  Both 
Haynes and Bentley say those stub axles should come out with 
a tap.  Are we going to have to take them to a machine shop 
to get them pressed out so we can paint the uprights?

We are going to pull the steering rack and replace the 
rubber mounts with nylatron.  Bentley says pull the fan to 
get to those front nuts.  Looks like that may be the case - 
anyone get them out with the fan still in place?  How did 
you do it?

As always thanks for the help - trying to get this car back 
on the road for the dive your British car week at the end of 
the month.  Dad wanted to drive it to the Mitty races at 
Road Atlanta - that certainly didn't happen.

Wish us luck,
Jim Farris
