MOT passed today with only one advisory in that the steering UJ's have a bit of play in them. Does anyone know what the are from. I would like to get some replacements.

You need to get them from TVR Parts or other franchised outlet. There's a difference between PAS and non-PAS UJ's

And doesn’t the later cars have a longer Top UJ and shorter shaft.
I also thought these were now hard to get hold of. Powers replaced my top UJ bearings so re using the casting. Spot on too.
The pics above looks like the r/h pic is that longer one so maybe Tvr Parts have addressed this issue.
Fair play

There are 3 different ones for the top uj.

They all have a large spline that goes on the bottom of the steering column and a smaller spline onto the shaft.

The 3 are 80mm 100mm 120mm long.

Powers in Coventry have the 80 and 100 and can refurb the 120
