Paul,

On my TR6 the O-ring went around the dust cover on the outside of the 
dust cover.  I have attached a picture of what the ring looks like 
placed on my calipers.  Now, I have no idea if it is the same on a TR3. 
 Hope this helps.

Subject: TR3A Caliper brake rebuild

  Hello!
I am about to rebuild the front Caliper brakes on my 60 TR3A.  The kit
included dust boots, square-sholdered O-rings and a steel ring for each
brake.  Where does this steel ring go?  I believe the rebuild  
procedure is
to lodge the new O-ring in the Caliper's piston hole then mount the dust
cover over this hole and insert the piston.  Am I right?
Thanks,
Paul Dorsey
