The Triumph 2000/2500/2.5 Register Forum

Hello SAHtuning,

I was looking for a MK1 front bumperblade, for rechroming, but on Chris Witor's website he has a brand new, still wrapped (partially) for sale. About £375 from memory?

Hello Baller,

although my car is modified as far as the anti roll bar is concerened, i.e. I made the bar mounting brackets my bar is above the track rods and the bar is shaped with a bend to keep them clear of the track rods on full depression.

I have recently fitted a Gripper LSD to my car and have the original differential carrier and as there was some pitting on the crown wheel teeth I opted to fit a new set. The differential was silent...

Hello Thjorsten,

what wheels have you fitted, I have experienced after market wheels with too small a counterbore to fit the hub correctly, which can affect true running of the wheel?

Alec

Hello Dave,

Hello all, does any one know of a supplier of the nylon injector fuel line. The only source i have seen so far are Revington TR but they are asking sillyl money for it (+£8 a metre) and it seems they are promoting their braided kits, which I do not like. I can find industrial suppliers but I don't k...
