TR6 Tinster's TR6 front suspension restoration part 1?

I was able to find Tinster's article "1969 Triumph TR6 Front Suspension Restoration Project" parts two and three, but I can not find part one. Can anyone email me this article or do they know where I can download this?

Thanks, Kevin

Thanks, but I have the part two (installation procedures). I also have part three (sway bar and radiator sheild refurbish). I still need part 1, which I am hoping is dismantling procedures. I sent a pm to Tinster, but I need to get going on this project. It seems like TR6 people are scarce in the past few weeks. If I get desperate, I'll just jump in. I do have a Bentley manual, but I found Dale's last article on the rear suspension very helpful - especially in avoiding some big mistakes.

The steps to disassemble are easy - procedure in the manual works fine if you have a Bentley manual on hand. I found the spring pan a bit of a pain but everything else was pretty easy. Just make sure to be careful with the spring....

Kevin - now you've got me curious.

Where did you hear/read there's a "part 1"? and where'd you find the "part 2" and "part 3" articles? I didn't know about any other than the one we linked above.

Thanks.
Tom

I don't really know if there is a part one, but I thought it would make sense since there is a part two and three. I found both articles by just doing a general internet search. Part 2 was easy to find, but part 3 was a little more difficult. They were both at scribd.com
