This amazing little invention replaces the bronze thrust washers in the top trunnions to reduce friction and give an almost power steering feel to your car without any major alterations to your vehicle. Makes the heavy manoeuvring of your Healey a thing of the past. Very high quality and not to be compared with cheaper alternatives available on the market.
Only detail changes occurred to the front suspension on the 100-Six and 3000 models compaired to the original 100. However, as the 100-Six was offered with either disc wheels or wire wheels, two different types of wheel hubs were found depending on the type of wheel. Wire wheel hubs went to a coarser thread (from twelve to eight threads per inch) from chassis H-BJ8/26705 in 1964.
Among the other changes affecting the front suspension was the introduction of slightly longer front springs in February 1957 on the BN4 model. On the 3000 Mark I in June 1960, the front coil springs had revised spring rates for better road holding. The spring rates were revised again with the introduction of the BJ7 convertible in 1962. In 1964 on the Phase II Mark III, again from chassis H-BJ8/26705, new front swivel axle assemblies were introduced, which for the first time were handed rather than being identical, and incorporated the brake caliper mountings. Apart from slight differences to their settings, basically the front shock absorbers were Armstrong hydraulic double-acting lever, typ IS9/10RXP. On all models, the castor angle was 2°, the camber angle was 1° and the swivel pin inclination was 61/2°.
