My best suggestion is do one side at a time so you can look at the other
side to see how things go back together. What seems obvious as you
disassemble them becomes assemble able in many different ways when you
try to reassemble it. Disassembly is also where a good digital camera
with a Macro setting really shines.
The Moss catalogue uses illustrations directly out of the TR parts book.
When I reassembled my suspension I found these illustrations provided
me with a clearer idea of what went where and the photographs provided
the details. In general the factory parts book has much better
illustrations than the workshop manual which assumed you are a trained
British car mechanic.
I tend to think of the Hayes manual as the condensed Reader's digest
version of the factory manual with a lot of Hayes boiler plate thrown
in. Where else can you get a TR2 through 4A shop manual plus many pages
of standard Hayes boilerplate in a thinner book than either the TR3 or
TR4 factory manuals.
As much as $10 on ebay? It may be a way to get rid of my copy. I have
too much Scottish blood just to throw it away.
