I don't think you need to worry very much about that. The Moss conversion
kit uses essentially the same mounting method (including the aluminum
blocks and U-bolts) as was used by the factory on very early TR4s (like
mine). Unless my TR4 is an unusual case, it doesn't appear to me that the
early TR4 is any more prone to rack damage than later models.

If cars had evolved as fast as computers have, by now they'd cost a
quarter, run for a year on a half-gallon of gas, and explode once a day.
