Front Anti-Roll-Bar (ARB) Bush
Ford Part
84 AB
5484 AA (Image 2) - 22mm
The part listed on many online sources,
including TVR-Parts' own website is actually
86 AB 5484 AA (example ref part Febi Bilstein No.
14527)-
which has the projection at the rear - (image 3, even though the
site's web images may
show otherwise). If this part is purchased, some modification
will be required to allow it to fit between the chassis and ARB
bracket (ie. removal of the hatched profile shown in image 4).
Once removed, the finished rear profile should look similar to
Image 5.

Radtec aluminium radiator
Supplied by ACT -
Size 375 x 795mm.
A small but important point - when
installing radiators, ensure that the correct rubber grommets
and mounts are fitted. Mid (upper) mounts are the
bobbin (cotton
reel) type and, dependent on rad design, are appx 18mm deep,
25mmm diameter with equal 17mm M8
threads each side. The rubber should not be overly stiff
(and many aftermarket bobbins have very little give) which may
place excessive stress on the rad and result in potential
fracture s/leaks. The bobbin should be firm enough to give good
support but be soft enough to absorb the day to day road
vibrations and compensate for any twisting / movement of the
fibreglass body. The nuts and washers which secure the radiator
onto the bobbins should not be overly tightened (onto the
slotted hole of the rad upper bracket) to allow for expansion of
the radiator when hot. The lower grommets which fix to
the radiators bottom pegs are appx 10mm ID x 25mm outer diameter
x 13mm deep (Image 2). Again this will be dependent on the overall
radiator size. It goes without saying that the grommets should
be larger than the holes in the fibreglass radiator bay. Those
sold at TVR Parts are barely 18mmm diam x 11mm deep and will
fall straight through the holes - ie zero use! Source your own
grommets subject to rad design and size of holes in the
fiberglass - plenty online sources.

Door Jamb reflectors
Jaguar XJ6. Marked 'BRYCREST' & 'ENGLAND'
fixed with two No.6 self tappers 2 no. required
These reflectors conceal a door card fixing
screw (Image 2). The protruding head of this screw (however
minor) can press against the flush back of the reflector. If
the reflector screws are tightened too much, stresses over time
can cause the aged plastic to break - (Image 3).
Several alloy options are available from
various private and TVR parts vendors.
Alternatively - DIY carbon fibre replacements
can be fabricated, utilising the red plastic reflector from the
original assembly. A cut-out in the carbon fiber - forming a
niche to
accommodate the head of the door card fixing screw - will give a
much improved 'flush' fit.
