Royboy66 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Quick question to help a Team Torpedo stuck on side of road in Georgia ! Does a Dolomite sprint share a front hub with any other Triumph ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 All Dolomite hubs are the same.Not sure if it matches a Spitfire hub, The stud patten is the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Certainly different to spitfire, as it uses the larger bearing (same bearing as a GT6 in fact)Pretty certain a GT6 one won't fit though. Part numbers different...http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID008484 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 TR7? (that is a guess not a statement!)Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 TR7 won't fit, that is a statement ;)Also bear in mind there are two variations on the Dolly Sprint hubThe difference lies in the studs. Early Sprints used the same as normal Dollies (3/8"studs).Later Sprints had 7/16" studs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Ok..... not TR7 then (thanks for the education :))Agree that later Sprints had different size studs but the hubs should be the same. Certainly I managed to fit the larger studs to my early Sprint without changing the hubs.Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gt6s Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 All Sodomites share the same hub. Not the same as Spitfire and the TR7 has struts. Interesting thing about Sodomite VL is that they are not handed, they have two sets of caliper mounts meaning you can fit two front calipers on each side.Laurence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can fit a SD1 master cylinder though.Laurence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
