Having just done this, I need hardly emphasize how important the exercise is.
The book "How to restore Triumph TR2/3" is very helpful.
I made braces for each door, which effectively secure the "A" and "B" posts:
don't know where you live, but if you are anywhere near Mass, you are welcome
to borrow them.
One more tip: I had to replace a B post on the driver's side and the
replacement part was significantly deeper (inside to outside measurement) than
the original. It literally took days to get it right.
Good luck !
