I've set up several different TR6 setups with different springs. I have
never had a spring rattle problem except when running extremely short
springs and even then you need to get really, really out of shape.
But a spring needing a rubber or stiffer buffer between the spring and the
pans is totally not necessary.
You can correct something like 11 degrees of camber through the entire
range on the stock brackets and you can probably dial in a lot more with
the Goodparts adjustable brackets.
The "issue" is that some of the spring rubbers are stiffer than the
original pieces, and putting in a stiffer spring than what you are taking
out along with the stiffer spring rubbers, the effective length of the
spring increases and you wind up with too much positive camber!
