I know this isn't part of your question, but the TR4A-IRS and TR6 frames
are not identical.  The body mounting points are the same, and the drive
line mounting points are the same, but there are some important
differences.  The biggest is that the mounts for the steering rack are
different.  Also, when you go to hang the brake lines and hoses, you
will notice differences in the way the shock towers are constructed.
It is possible to get around these differences if you plan to make a swap
between 4A and 6, but it's nice if you are aware of them ahead of time.
