    The shocks in my 1960 TR3 are completely shot. I have a set of NOS shocks and links and will be changing them out soon.     Question: The original mounting holes are elongated and ovaled. I have considered either welding a plate on the outside face of the mounts and drilling new holes or making some sort of thick washers that I would weld on to the backside of the mounting bracket. Is this really necessary? Has anyone else mounted new shocks with ovaled holes in the? Do the shocks rattle around or do the mounting bolts hold them tight enough that this doesn't happen?     TIA     -Bill in Morro Bay ** triumphs@autox.team.net ** Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/triumphs http://www.team.net/archive Unsubscribe/Manage: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/mharc@autox.team.net |
