Jan Dawson, who frequents this List, provided me with the part number for the
Airlift kit that fits the rear coil springs on a TR6. As you can see from
Jan's email below, his family has been using them successfully on a TR250 and
TR6's for many years.
After calling Airlift, I found that the part number for the kit offered by Jan
has now been superceded by these part numbers:
Bags: p/n 46143; qty 2 required
Hoses: p/n 20086; qty 1 required
I'm going to order a set from my local dealer - I'm sure they're the solution
to the problem of my heavily laden TR6 on road trips.
Thanks to Jan for the part numbers and recommendation.
Thanks to Randall for the original unique idea that sent me off in this
direction.
Cheers,

Subject: Airlifts for TR6
Brian,
I have had Airlifts on my TR250 for over 15 years now. My brother and father
have had them on their TR6s for the same amount of time. I have recommended
them for years to various friends in the local Triumph club. The truth is
that they work great! When you are going on a trip, and really load the car
down with luggage, etc., you just inflate the airlifts a little more and its
amazing the difference they make in ride and handling.
I'll even help you out...the Airlift part # for the TR6 is : #60784
phone # 800-248-0892
Installation is very simple and straight forward. Good luck!
Sincerely,
Jan Dawson
