Just looking for some new sources and thought at some of the folks who dabble on the Dark Side might have some input.

I have a TR3 differential down and as a matter of course called Moss to get the cupped washers. They have them listed but have never stocked them nor do they intend to. No problem, I thought. I'll just call The Roadster factory. Nice folks there and they wanted to help but they too had no sources for new ones. Ditto on Northwest British. Checked with a couple of other suspects and came up empty handed.

I did, however run across a fellow here in NC who seems to have barns full of TR3 to TR6 stuff. He is checking behind the cobwebs and will get back to me early next week, but for now I thought that someone here might want to help.

Admittedly these things are a bit out of the mainstream for normal maintenance, but the equivalent bits for an MGB can be had by the truck load.

Thanks EK.

Scott PMed me and I responded this morning, but I don't know where he is or what his number might be. It would be good to have it.

Does he do this for grins or to put food on the table? Does he have a web site?
