This has a series of three brackets on each side.? There is a bracket that mounts to the inner wheel well as in the on above but it also bolts up to another bracket in the recess by the gas tank which mounts up >to yet another bracket that bolts up to the mount for the lever shock.? This kit transfers the shock loading to the frame point that was designed for it.? The down side is there are six pieces requiring 16 new holes in the >bodywork and the brackets are bulky.? I removed mine after I found the tire on one side was rubbing against the bracket in the wheel well.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> This is the kit that I installed on my TR6 back in ’09. Yes, you had to remove the gas tank to do the install and yes, you needed a 90 degree adapter for your drill, but it appeared to be the strongest and most well engineered solution available at the time. There was an installation glitch in that 2 of the brackets were pre-drilled the same when they should have been drilled as a LEFT and a RIGHT. We installed the driver’s side first and it was fine but then ran into an issue when we went to install the passenger side – the pre-drilled holes were NOT where they were supposed to be on the bracket. There was plenty of space on the bracket to drill new holes where they should have been but this caused some unnecessary installation angst. At the time, I contacted TRF via an email letting them know of the issue and got no response. That kit appears to have been discontinued. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Dennis Culligan, Highland NY / 1976 TR6 CF57948U <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
