Greetings:

I have a question for all you good folks on this list. How does the handling
of the IRS version of the TR4A compare to the handling of the live axle
version? What reccomendations do you all have to improve the live axle
handling?

I am now in the midst of swapping out the TR6 IRS for a TR4A live axle setup,
using a narrowed Ford axle. I can see that I will have plenty of room to use
tube shocks, rather than the lever action now on there. Any reccomendations
for these?

Thanks in advance for your help!
