just got the replacement springs for the triumph o/d type A I am working on.
all eight springs are the exact same length. 4 are yellow tipped and 4 are red
tipped. the red tipped ones appear weaker than the yellow tipped ones. did
laycock come up with a new technical change and not notify triumph, as all
their repair manuals talk about short and long springs. the springs that were
in the o/d are exactly like the ones I received today. while perusing a type A
repair video I noticed that the guy doing the repair had a set of springs he
was going to install that had red and yellow painted tips. appears to me
that the weaker springs compress to the same tension as the stronger ones to
replace short/long springs. can anyone clue me in as to what is happening.
