While many of the codes were established and in use pre-1939 by Standard Motor Company, additional codes were introduced post-war - and the L suffix was one of them. It was incorporated in the commi

So the more number of chassis's identified a LHD, the better. As these were headed to the USA (or possibly elsewhere?) But am I right in saying that there is no difference in a TR2 - TR3 chassis jus

B, as in BW stands for Borg Warner, the company that made the automatic transmission. Also a part of Jaguar serial numbers if so equipped. _______________________________________________ Support Tea

I guess it depends on the definition of "chassis". To me, the steering box is part of the chassis, and obviously it's different between LHD and RHD. The rear springs were also 'handed', assembled to

This whole controversy can usually be attributed to the often misused term, "Chassis Number". This is often misused to point to what is in reality the "Commission number". For it is the commission nu

Are you sure the springs on a TR3 are "handed" ? They do not have separate part numbers and come (from Moss at least) as a pair with no indication of sidedness. Andrew --Original Message-- From: tri

Yup, I'm sure, at least for the later cars (like Paul's). At commission number TS26904 (according to the SPC), the passenger side rear spring was changed to P/N 303306 while the driver's side stayed

Revington offers several different lengths in the same spring-rate (for the fronts anyway) so it's quite possible to make a set of "compensated" front springs. And they have the aluminum spacer for t

Notice that there is a spacer on the right-hand spring, to add a little extra tension presuming the car is driven without a passenger most of the time. Maybe, even for a little torque compensation??

As Randall pointed out earlier, the spacer actually drops that side of the car, as the axle is on top of the leaf springs. Interestingly, BTW, the TR4 parts manual only lists left and right springs f

That IS interesting. But as I read mine, it lists handed springs for both RHD and LHD to CT2829; then only LHD cars to CT23382 (when they all changed to the arched springs with the tall alloy spacer
