It's the one with the operating lever at around 45 °
Early Mk1's had a more horizontal lever.
Here is a pic of the two types...

Re: Wiper blades.....again....
Glad it's sorted! I too would much prefer to repair if possible rather than replace. The satisfaction of a repair far outweighs simply buying a new and probably inferior quality modern replacement.
Probably why I like TV programs like the Repair Shop!!

Re: Wiper blades.....again....
The three Phillips head screws appear to hold the mounting bracket on, but also appear to hold the union piece in position with a rubber gasket in between. I 'd remove one of the screws and if they are long enough to reach the pump body, then I think it can be dismantled and hopefully cleaned, or an...

Re: Wiper blades.....again....
I'm glad you want to keep the original stainless wiper blades, rather than replacing with black - modern black blades just dont look right on a Triumph! Assuming you have the original type of stainless blade, then it's just a case of squeezing the two 'barb' shaped tabs together and sliding the rubb...

Re: Front wheel camber
And to actually answer your question Nige(!!), yes it's simply a case of loosening the shackle bolts and removing / adding the shim(s). You only need to slacken the nylocs and knock the bolts through slightly to allow enough room to access / add the shims. You may have to use a stout flat screwdrive...

Re: Front wheel camber
I would think that taking one shim from the outer leg of the nearside swinging arm and adding it to the outer leg of the offside swinging arm will effectly alter both from pointing to the nearside (kerb). But the thickness / number of the shims that you need to remove or add will be trial and error,...

Re: Engine upgrade
I can't really give you any useful info on using the TR6 bits on your 2000 engine. I think someone such as Chris Witor would be one of the best people to ask, as he has played with performance enhancing modifications to the 2000 / 2500 range for many years.

Re: Engine upgrade
Even though the face-lift ML engines with HS4's were never a ball of fire, they weren't as bad as you are portraying. The J type overdrive gearbox will make no difference to its performance Peter; in fact engaging overdrive in third and / or fourth will lower the engine revs and therefore will not a...

Re: Engine upgrade
Assuming it is on HS4's, they were only fitted for a short period of time to the facelift 2000, before changing to HS6's. The 2000 engine on HS4's was considered to be a bit lacking in performance. Are you certain that all the engine settings, including the carburettors are correctly set? There was ...
