For those TMers who have not been around forever, the front suspension on the trad was upgraded in 06/07, to level the track rods, and I believe part of the change may have been to place the track rods under the steering arms, unless the arms themselves were lowered on the stubs.
I know this because my Roadster had the earlier spec stubs with plastic bushes when new. The first owner (after being the dealer demo) felt that the handling was unsafe and had exchanges with the factory, and did not give up. The outcome was that he insisted on the later spec set up, and was provided with this 'at cost'. I have the documentation and it wasn't cheap even at cost, but presumably made him happy. So my Roadster had revised stub axles with bronze bushing, and the dealer had to modify the over rider brackets to avoid contact with the lower positioned track rods. This is evident as quite a rough fix - still visible now.
I'm relating this story for two reasons. One owner felt the design was unsafe but a large number accepted it and continue to accept it as it is, and had been so for several years. And yet the factory changed it for the better, so you might surmise that feedback over time led them to do that, and the design has continued to evolve slowly. Steering bearings were the next upgrade.........
The second reason for mentioning this again is to illustrate the point that nothing is new in the world of Morgan, but changes are rarely documented or announced publicly.
