[TR] TR4 Chassis Issues

I don't recall the details now, but a few years back there was a local frame shop that made a presentation to our club bragging
about their computerized laser frame alignment machine and said, among other things, that they already had computer models for the
TR2-8 in their database.  Might be worth calling around in your area to see if there are any similar shops.

Of course the machine doesn't guarantee that any repairs are done properly, but a frame shop that can't deal with cracks and breaks
isn't going to stay in business for very long.  There's nothing "magic" about a TR frame except it's somewhat simpler than, say, my
62 Chevy was.

Still, if the money was available, I'd go for the Ratco frame.
