My thought exactly ... why would anyone want to swap a dead-reliable and
quite functional axle for the fragile and cantankerous Triumph IRS ?
There's a reason why you've never heard of anyone having the diff mounts rip
out of a TR3, while it seems to happen all the time to TR6 ... and Stags are
even worse.
