I think Larry Atkisson from PTC is now making the bolt on traction
masters.

When I compared my Tiger Mark II springs to Alpine Series V springs,
there were subtle differences.

Speaking of suspensions, I have never gotten a good solution for a front
sway bar.  I'd really like to just buy a good one with good mounts if
there's one available.  Avoid a lot of the technical aspects.  But . . .
if I have to have something fabricated, it wouldn't be the first time. 

Time for some Kudos:  I am sure most of the left coast folks already
know this, but for the rest of you out there, Larry Atkisson is a
pleasure to work with and I would recommend his craftsmanship to
anyone.  While I'm passing out praises, I believe Mike Wood left office
somewhat disallusioned.  I thought he should know that the rest of the
Tiger world, the ones that aren't interested in club politics,
appreciated his efforts.  I'm sure he doesn't remember, but I met him
briefly at the Tiger United in Tahoe.  Another great enthusiast. 
Actually, our Tiger community has a lot of great personalities.  Norm
Miller, Tom Hall, Paul Reisentz (sp?), Dale Akuszewski, etc, etc. 

Sorry to digress, but thought this group could use a little positive
energy.

I'll Shut up Now,
