These instructions assume that you already have a TC3 kit.
The Conversion Kit contains direct-fit parts that will replace
comparable parts on your TC3. The instructions will show you
where the TC3 Rally parts go; use your TC3 manual to
disassemble your kit properly and reassemble with the new
parts. Retain this instruction manual for reference and to help
When the instructions tell you to remove an "original" part, it
is referring to the part currently on your TC3 kit.
When the instructions tell you to use a "Rally" part, it is
referring to a part that is included in the TC3 Rally Conversion
Kit.
