Hi Rick,
Would mind giving some additional info on your diff. swap to Z car? I am
thinking of redoing my '71 TR6 rear-end with it's weak design. Has anyone
converted to Datsun rear brake disc?
what year? cost to convert? weight change? do you use same of TR "do-nuts"
for mounts? How do get hold of Richard Good?
thanks for any input
