The American Tax Revolt was in nature primarily a counter-revolution aimed at restoring the old order of the pre-Seven Years War era rather than a revolution aimed at instituting a new order. However, it proved impossible to get the British to agree to return to that old order, and hence it became an independence movement. Had France (and Spain) not intervened, I think it entirely possible that the Revolt could have been resolved with an understanding of where the boundaries between colonial and imperial sovereignty lay similar to the American view of where they ought to lay pre-1774.
