Sorry if I have got the wrong thread here but I assume that you are
discussing the fitting
of 'flat' profile roller thrust bearings in TR gearboxes.
If so then Racetorations in the UK do the mod, but for a TR4 box some
fairly difficult
machining is required.
However their customers seem well pleased with the results and the boxes
have stood
up well to racing use.
From memory I think the cost is around 800 UK Pounds for a fully recon box
with all the mods.
