Keeping in mind that a stock U.S. spec. TR6 only produces about 104 hp, it's pretty obvious that these cars aren't made for straight line drag racing. No, it's a sports car, made to go around curves quickly! With that thought in mind, I ordered new matching 7/8" front and rear anti-sway bars from Good Parts. Richard has a race prepped TR6, so he knows how to make these cars handle.
The bars are power coated in semi-gloss black.
The mounting brackets are carved out of solid billet aluminum and use nylatron bushings.
All the hardware is first class !
Since the TR6 came from the factory with provisions for a front anti-sway bar, the new Good Parts bar is a bolt on affair.
Front bar all buttoned up !
Well, it's on to the rear anti-sway bar, and since the factory did not provide for such a bar, I'll need to break out the cordless drill, a 7/16th" bit, and put 4 holes in the frame ! Wish me luck!
Using the old measure twice and drill once rule, I was able to get 2 holes on each side of the frame in the correct place ! A "U" bolt is fed up, across, and down, and will be used to hold a bracket on each side of the frame.
Another bracket is mounted up against the trailing arm, directly under the rear spring on each side.
As usual, with Good Parts, the brackets are cut from billet aluminum and the bushings are nylatron !
