The sleeve locks down when the nut is tightened, the nylon bushes pressed=
in the A-arms; the relative movement is between the steel OD & ID of the b=
ush.Clearance between the ID of the steel & the pivot pin isn't part of the=
equation.
Or I may be misunderstanding the concern...HTH

Subject: [Fot] TR3 front end rebuild questions
It=E2=80=99s been awhile since I=E2=80=99ve done this so I have a question =
about the proper fit of the steel bushing and the fixed cross pin in the lo=
wer inner support for the TR3 front suspension. There is about 0.004=E2=80=
=9D clearance between The new steel bushings I have and the suspension cros=
s pin welded to the frame. Once you install a control arm, you can feel thi=
s clearance as slop with that one arm installed. I=E2=80=99m assuming the m=
ajority of this slop will disappear once I install the remainder of the sus=
pension pieces and bolt them all together. But wanted to ask, does that cle=
arance sound right?=C2=A0 Seems excessive to me.=20
Are there options to ditch the metal sleeve and nylon insert to get rid of =
that slop on a TR3?
Thanks.=20
