Randall will give you a full accountas i recall the adjusting bolt on the =
steering box was whitworththe plugs on top of the trans are metricsome of t=

ches with me from the old country when i left. they have a lot of dust on t=
hem right now and not a lot of oil.
you can take the steering wheel off in a similar manner to the TR6. you hav=
e to pull the horn hub assembly and pull the wire through the stator tube.o=
r...you could kill a socket by cutting a small groove in it so the wire can=
pass through and not pull the wire all the way out.

First, being relatively new to the TR3 line, I am noticing some of the bol=

don't match up to my SAE wrenches.=C2=A0 I have had to use metric on occasi=

Haven't had this issue on the 4, 6 or 8.=C2=A0 Are these Whitworth sized bo=

and nuts which would mean I should invest in a set of those wrenches?=C2=A0=

always like a new tool but want to check first.
Secondly, what steps do I need to do to get the steering wheel lined up to
be straight.=C2=A0 The car tracks nicely down the road in a straight line b=

steering wheel is at the 11 and 5pm clock positions left and right hands

It's a 60 TR3A, is there an easier way to disconnect wheel like a TR6 to
align correctly.=C2=A0=20
