NAPA or other Parts Numbers for Triumph Parts

Back when I had an Austin Healey there was (still is actually) a great website that listed parts numbers for various parts you could buy at the local chain auto parts store for your old British car. Oil filters, and a few things, the list wasn't extensive, but if you could get a part needed locally in the middle of a repair very helpful.

Is there a similar resource for Triumphs?

I am generally interested in the question, but also specifically wondering if there is a NAPA or other part number for all those darn u-joints in the TR rear suspenstion (TR4A-6), Thanks, Greg

Wouldn't it be easier to ask the folks at NAPA?

The axles and drive shaft all carry the same part numbers for u-joints and flanges and there are alternatives out there.

When I did my 5 speed and Nissan diff upgrade I had to have a new driveshaft made up so I took the old drive shaft to Fleet Pride which is a national facility that specializes in these things. He looked at my stock drive shaft, flanges and u-joints, went "out back" and returned with a flange and u-joint that they keep in stock. The u-joint has a grease fitting and was cheaper than Moss, TRF etc. The flange was cheaper too.

I honestly didn't expect it to be that easy--so didn't try, thanks

NAPA does have parts and from my experience, quality parts that fit TR6. In the past I've gotten U-joints and recently differential pinion seals.
You can do an online search for specific parts. Some parts may not be in the store but overnight or in a day or two they'll be there.

My brake lights did't work. Jumped the wire at the swich, and they worked. Need a switch. Called my parts guy, described the setup, and he said"you need an old ford switch"
This must be a generic term, as I think that's what Randall called it.
He even sent the round terminals for it. $9.00, one day- Brake lights work, and I can go riding.
Hooray, Emmett

Used to be called the "Monster List".. All kinds of parts referrals, parts suppliers, etc. Dunno if it's still around. But might try researching. If I remember Teglerizer had a linkup to it...

Ron, is this the Monster List you are thinking of?
https://www.team.net/sol/britpart.html

Not a listing of part numbers, but suppliers. Usually with some comments from customers.

Not so actively maintained these days; but I believe Chris does keep up with any new information he receives.
