[TR] TR6 Rear Shock Conversion

[Darrell Walker]

Actually, I think the Blind Moose kit mounts just like that one.  I have it
on my TR4A, and it has been fine, but I also don't put a lot of miles on it.
Bob Danielson has some pages on it, and a secondary brace that can be added:

Run, don't walk, away from this
conversion. This puts the shock
loading onto the inner wheel well which was
not designed for this
loading. Instead use something like this:

This bracket puts the
shock absorber loading directly onto the frame
mount for the lever shock. I've
had this conversion on my car for 10+
years and I love it.

[TR] TR6 Rear Shock Conversion


All,

I know that there has been previous
discussions on converting to tube
shocks
on the TR6, however, I have lost the
previous emails and would like the
advice
of the group regarding converting
and in particular using the 'Blind
Moose'
kit. It seems to me that it would
tear loose at the mount points.
