                You did not indicate exactly where you have cracks.

Cracks will form on any Tiger at the rear spring perches.  You need to =
reinforce these areas.  I believe Tom Hall has a kit for this.

Tigers,

I have my Mk1A apart for paint.  We have found quite a few stress cracks =
in the paint in the rear end.

My car has a built 302 and a 3.53 posi rear end.  I have heavy-duty =
springs and don't have any wheel hop.  I wondering if traction bars =
would help stiffen the rear end or if there is some other remedy

others have used.

Thanks in advance,

Tym McDowell
