Triumph TR6 Overdrive Conversions Electrics Customer Comments

"Yesterday afternoon I ordered 2 bumper mounts for a P38 Range Rover. This morning at 10 o'clock they were delivered to my home. I feel I must congratulate you and your company for service beyond the call of duty. This means my car will be off the road for less than 24 hours. To say I am impressed is an understatement and you have got a customer who will not only use your services again but will recommend you to all my Land Rover friends as well. Thank you once again for outstanding service." Customer Comment

Triumph TR6 Overdrive Conversions & Electrics

Upgrade or restore your Triumph TR6's overdrive system with quality electrical components designed for the Laycock unit. Whether you're converting a non-overdrive gearbox, repairing faulty solenoids or replacing worn switches, we stock genuine and aftermarket overdrive solenoids, relays, wiring harnesses and control switches for all TR6 models from 1969-1976.

Overdrive System Technology

TR6 overdrive units use electrical solenoids that engage an additional gear ratio for relaxed motorway cruising. The system connects to Triumph TR6 electrical circuits through dedicated wiring and switches mounted on the gearbox. Overdrive conversions require specific Triumph TR6 propshaft lengths to accommodate the extended gearbox casing. Proper operation depends on healthy Triumph TR6 clutch adjustment for smooth engagement.

Electrical Component Maintenance

Solenoid failures prevent overdrive engagement. Regular fluid changes protect internal components, whilst electrical connections need cleaning periodically.

Planning overdrive work? Consider checking the Triumph TR6 engine mountings during gearbox access.

Can I convert my non-overdrive TR6 to overdrive specification?

Yes, complete conversion kits include gearbox, propshaft and electrical components, though installation requires specialist knowledge.

Are overdrive electrical components prone to failure?

Solenoids can fail through age; regular servicing and clean connections extend reliability significantly, similar to maintaining the Triumph TR6 cooling system components.
