The Triumph 2000/2500/2.5 Register Forum

Thanks for all your answers, I'll get the struts out and see. They have not been moved since 1993 so they must be due a look.

I've just seen a Hovis ad on TV, it goes through various decades and the 70's features the briefest of glimpses of a dark blue saloon, mk2, as it drives past a wedge type Austin Princess. Nice to know that someone out there thinks about our cars. Also, I've just finished replacing the clutch and bra...

Hi there, I cannot imagine why depressing the clutch pedal 3 times would in some way cause the breakage of the bearing or plate. Possibly you could have a problem with the peg that locates the clutch fork to the cross shaft, did you check the condition of the peg before re-assembly ? Of course you a...

It was cheap for a rebuilt part so I kept it. I like it because I now tend to hold the individual gears a bit longer. I also did use a 3.45 as...

As Alec says, machining is not particularly expensive.&nbsp; It was some time ago now (1994) when I paid £12.00 per bore on my 2000.
