Mark,
Two frame types were used in the TR6 with the changeover taking place between
the 72 and 73 model years. The J type overdrive was meant for use in the later
frames and an "A" type OD was used in the earlier frames.
The location of the rear mount is different between the frames.
I recently went though this very exercise and was only able to mount a J type
on an earlier frame by some custom metal work. I could not locate any source
of an "off the shelf" bracket conversion kit.
I'm sure you could also make this work by moving the frame mount as needed. (If
you are up for cutting and welding on the frame.)
