Please respond to the list regarding the discussion of the rear shock
conversion as I am considering this change for my TR250!

TIA

Subject: TR4A Conversion to Rear Shocks


I am interested in converting my TR4A IRS from lever shocks to
telescopic.  I've seen several kits available on the market (Revington
TR, Quiller, etc.) and do not have the slightest idea as to which is
better or why.  Can anyone offer me any experience/opinions about which
one they went with and why?  Basically I am looking for some guidance.

On another note, I spent some time Saturday looking over the chassis now
that I have the body off.  I believe I am going to tear it down along
these lines.

1. Fuel line off
2. Brake line off
3. Exhaust off
4. Steering rack off
5. Left-front off as a whole unit (with brakes)
6. Right-front off as a whole unit (with brakes)
7. Left-rear off as a whole unit (with brakes and axel-shaft)
8. Right-rear off as a whole unit (with brakes and axel-shaft)
9. Diff with prop shaft


Peace be with you!
