TR2/3/3A TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Mine were twice as long as from one end to the center, lol.

Sorry I don't have the answer you are looking for. Someone will come along soon.
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

I can measure it tomorrow Karl if no one answers before then. I have mine off the car.

Cheers,
M. Pied Lourd
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

That would be great. A friend is fabricating his own distance tubes on his 3 and needed to know.
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

I have one of the "improved" ones ... it is 4.25 inches long. The original one I have is installed, but I think I compared them at one point, and they were the same length. Cheers, Mike
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Yes Mike, they are the same length. So 4.25 inches it is.

Cheers,

Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Thanks for the info Mike and Tush. There are approximately 20 TR3's in Manitoba according to one guesstimate. Quite a few restored and some project cars. I was surprised that there were that many all tolled. Any idea how many 3's are on the road in Ontario? Cheers Karl
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Hi Karl,

Well, looking through the members database for the Toronto Triumph Club we have 8 TR2's and 37 TR3-3B's listed. Got to be close to 100 in Ontario I would guess.

Cheers,
David
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Wow. Didn't realize ther were that many on the road there. I guess there might be another 50 in Alberta and 100 in BC? Time for a TR3 Convention. :smile:
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

Are we using standard or metric to get these numbers?
 
Re: TR3 Rear Overider Bracket "distance tube"?

In terms of TR3s in OVTC, I think we have 11 in various states of repair. Cheers, Mike
