[TR] TR3A to 4A Suspension conversion

[Cameron Joyce]

Hello list - 

 

I'm in the process of re-assembling the 3A's front suspension using 4A
trunnions and upper A arms, and the polyurethane bushing kit. I've read that
the orientation of the upper fulcrum pin changed in 1962 with the change to
the 3 degree trunnion, but I'm not clear which orientation I should use for
the upper fulcrum pin  - curve to the back (towards the engine) as it
originally was on my car, or curve towards the tire as it would be on a
later 4A.  (If the latter, is there enough clearance for the shock mounting
rubber/washer?)

 

Also looking a BTDT website if anyone has posted a play by play of their
front suspension reassembly?
