Really weird! The reason I asked was back in my Tiger days, the club
tech heads had worked out that 60-70's Caddilac(!) front shocks were a
excellent fit on the front. Corvette shock were a direct replacement for
the rear. I ran this setup on 3 of my Tigers, and it worked super!
Having this knowledge opened up a array of quality and price options.
I guess the TR6 never had the availablity problems that Sunbeam had, so
no one bothered to try and match them against something else.
