David,

It may still be too early for a confirmation, but I believe my 72 TR6 
project's diff brackets are without cracks!

I just finished repairing the left rear mounting stud with the help of Marty 
Sukey's  jigs. I have been working on the frame removing rust scale and I 
have examined all 4 studs top bottom sides and I cant find any cracks.
After the frame is blasted, I will be adding the diff re-inforcement kit I got 
from TSI + I will be adding other frame re-inforcement plates as I have seen 
on the 6 Pack forum. Maybe after blasting, I will see evidence of cracks.

The odometer shows 45K but I don't know if it is true as there is significant 
body rust that is in the process of being repaired.

Bob
