The question is the rack on the TR3 rack and pinion conversion the same 
as the quick ratio rack for the TR4?

The TR4 quick ratio rack does not fit the early TR4's & I wonder if a 
different rack was used on the TR3 kit.  I think I remember reading a 
few years back that the rack used on the TR3 conversion came from a 
different British car.  Mini?

Either way the Moss is selling the quick steering rack as their only TR4 
& 4A replacement rack to all TR owners.  Not all the non racing TR4s are 
garage queens.  The Roadster factory doesn't sell an aftermarket rack.   
They rebuild the stock one.

Come Monday I'm going to be asking Moss folks questions about the TR3 
conversion kit.
