[TR] 74 TR6 U-Joint Needs Replacement

I can't say for sure about the TR6, but I have found that the Dana Spicer
U-Joints for Spits are equally as strong as the Hardy Spicer ones and much
more readily available.

The clutch-and-ujoint specialist in town will know the ones.  I believe that
TR6 cars use a common size.
