Hello Triumph People!

I have written to this list several times before and have always received
great advice...very much appreciated.  I am finally making progress on the
renewal of the front suspension for my 1972 Mk. 3 GT6. Here is the
question/situation.  I am having a tough time loosening the nyloc nuts on
the back of the front end fulcrum brackets (surprise!!)...have one loose.  I
want to loosen all four so that I can make adjustments when I put the
refurbished A-arms back in.  I am about to revert to what I do
best...destroying things!  If I really muck things up and need to order new
front fulcrum brackets...are those bolts part of the bracket assembly?  The
reason I ask such a dumb question is because when I look at my  British
Leyland Parts Catalogue...they do not have a separate part number for the
bolt that goes thru the bracket....just a number for the bracket.  So, do
vendors sell the bracket with the bolt attached?  Hopefully...will be able
to preserve original stuff...but just "my glass is not only half empty, but
it is shattered on the floor" approach coming thru!

Really hoping to have very early MK3 (Oct 1971 date) "runnin' ugly" this
fall!

TIA,
Ray McC
