Does anyone on the list have an opinion or any experience with the Spax 
rear tube shock conversion for the TR6 that Victoria British sells?  The 
brackets look different in the photo than some of the other rear tube 
shock kits I've seen.  I'm considering buying this kit.   Also, I would 
like to hear opinions on using the lever arm shocks with either heavier 
oil or with the stiffer valves (or both).   Anyone running that setup that 
cares to share your thoughts compared to a tube shock conversion?  I'm 
looking for a stiffer, tighter rear suspension without a lot of 
modifications (I don't want to start drilling and cutting).    If I could 
get the same level of firm control from the lever shocks, I would prefer 
to go that route for originality sake.

Any input appreciated.

Thanks, Greg
