Hi Dan,
Way back in the past someone on the list did tell of place where you could
get stiffer springs (I mean the ones that are used inside the shocks
themselves). I also remember someone saying you could put a washer under
the head of some bolt in there which either compressed or relaxed the
spring a bit. The information must be in the archives.
Then of course you can always experiment with different weights of oil. If
you like your dentist just put in some 90 weight and head for his office.
Maybe you don't need to order anything from TRF!
Regards,
Jim

Subject: uprating TR3 rear levers - MGB standard or uprated?
Quick question on uprating the rear lever shocks in a TR3 -- I
understand you can install the front shock valves from an MGB to get
stiffer TR3 shocks.
I inquired about this with TRF while placing an order, and what they
offer for the MGB are uprated valves.
What do the listerati think? Do I want standard MGB valves, or
uprated MGB valves? Will my teeth fall out with the MGB uprated
valves?
TIA,
Dan
