Peter,
I can't address the TR6 specifically, but would suggest trying a small
diameter bar, 1/2 or 2/3 the thickness of the front bar on your car.
Rear bars are not the hot setup on the solid axle cars, but used "in
moderation" can help keep an independent rear suspension under control.
Is "tail happy" a bad thing? (Sorry, I couldn't resist}
