Hi
Check out the revington site in the uk

Suspension and steering

www.revingtontr.com

Not saying you have to buy from there but it gives an idea as to the cross over parts

note some front springs are longer than the std TR3 springs but you use them without the aluminium spacers
Some are shorter springs but for the rear of an irs (4a to 6 model) that work with the Ali spacer.

you can lower the car by turning over the bottom wishbone arms.

may I question what you are trying to achieve as there may be others solutions.

Eg I use these on the front with the Ali spacer and the thicker poly spring seats
It’s a little higher than normal but I have other modifications too.

Hey, thanks for the tips. I had actually been talking with Revington about different options, but this is helpful. Checked out your YouTube vids- lovely TR! What size steering wheel are you using? I think I'm finally at the point that I want to go with a smaller wheel than the stock- would make getting in and out of car with my Corbeau seats much easier.

hi the steering wheel is 15"moto lita
i still have the steering box and 185/70x15 road tyres and it is a but heavy to manoeuvre in a carpark but fine on the road
the trick is to only turn the wheel when moving to prevent strain( you and the car !!)

Thx. I converted to R&P a while ago, it makes a world of difference. The only downside is that the turning radius has now become that of the QE2, lol. Other than that, the steering is amazingly light.
