It's as straight forward an installation as anything is on a TR6! Because of
the number of shim I had on the car I had to get a couple of longer bolts
for going through the frame. One guy I know had a problem with the pivot
bolt clearance with the frame and had to use a shorter bolt. Some guys have
had to play around with the spacers used with the bushings. For a 30+ year
old car, nothing too surprising. Just make sure you note the number of shims
behind each of your existing brackets and re-use them in the same
arrangement on the new brackets...... Assuming your car was in alignment to
begin with. Lots of pictures on the Goodparts TA install here

Hi Listers......Many thanks to all who took the time to respond to my
inquiry!
NOW, I have a good reason to bring the sleeping TR6 out of the rear garage
into the front garage where I have some room! I will investigate which
brackets are under the car and their orientation to see where I stand. I
took a quick look at the adjustable brackets on the Good Parts website and
they seem like a bargain at $130. After I have a good look at the rear
suspension again, I think I may invest in a set. Are these a pretty straight
forward install; other than the alignment? Thanks again to all! Best
Regards...........Jim McArthur
