another suspension question to the wise...
After I bought my 1st TR6, I took my car to a triumph "specialist" for a 
"once over".  I had some clunking in the back of the car when I 1st started 
off.  The guy shook the rear wheels and told me I needed new hubs.  I just 
took the hubs and outer axels off the car and was surprised at how good they 
were.  The hubs move freely with only a little in-out movement.  You really 
can't even detect that when the hubs are off of the car.  I was surprised at 
how much movement was in the splines.  Maybe this is the source of my the 
"clunk" ( the trailing arm bushes, shock mounts, links, diff all seem ok)  My 
question is...How much play in the hubs and splines is ok?  I hate to spend 
>$500.00 on unecessary repairs
I could use some advice
