Re: 70 Spitfire update (OD question) (score: 1): Author: AMfoto1@aol.com; Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2005 06:34:49 EST; Hi Darrell, I don't think it's possible to set up the OD to engage in 1st gear on any of these cars using either A-type or J-type ODs. It is possible to add a switch to engage it in 2nd gear, but you; /html/triumphs/2005-01/msg00744.html (7,673 bytes)

So, it might be difficult or impossible to just replace with a regular nut and bolt. And, fixed nuts are often used in pla; /html/triumphs/2005-01/msg00892.html (8,915 bytes)

I used fiberglass resin and cloth on the inside of my TR4's original cardboard gearbox cover. The cover wasn't in good shape when I got the car, but; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00830.html (8,035 bytes)

For one thing, you will find certain parts very hard to find separately. Als; /html/triumphs/2006-03/msg00831.html (8,971 bytes)

Of course, that conjurs up all sorts of visions of MGs with gun racks, camo seat covers, etc. I wonder if they plan to build th; /html/triumphs/2006-07/msg00302.html (7,220 bytes)

It's sort of a matter of personal taste. I'd suggest you tell Sharon to check around if there is a Triumph club in her area and; /html/triumphs/2006-07/msg00489.html (9,207 bytes)
