Hi Dave,
No, on TR4s both the vertical links and trunnions are right-hand threaded.
But, I need to correct one thing in Carl's response. Only very early TR4s up
to CT6343, steel wheel/CT6339, wire wheel used the 0 degree caster, TR3 style
front king pin, control arms and trunnion. CT6344 and all later TR4 used 3
degree caster, right- and left-handed assembly.
Note: There was also an earlier variant of the front suspension, up to
CT4689, steel wheel/CT4387, wire wheel. But I do not know the difference and it
must
be relatively minor since all the vendors spec the same parts for all TR4s up
through CT6343/CT6339.
I think Carl was thinking of the conversion to rubber mounted rack & pinion
assembly in the low CT20,000s, from the earlier, solid-aluminum mounts.

the second 20,000 TR4s have the 3 degree slanted trunnions.

Which means there is a right and a left, right? Do they have right and left
hand threads (like the TR6)?
