No longer available in this form as a standard part. TR's 4A IRS, 250, 5 and 6 can exhibit a tendency for the rear end to do a single twitch, both left and right, on the straight after a series of corners.
Examining the rear suspension may not show anything obviously loose or sloppy on either the suspension or the drive train.
This problem is usually caused by worn drive shafts, which lock up when compressed in a corner and take a moment to unlock when the car has straightened, but in the meantime the suspension is held up in the wheelarch until it jerks free causing an obvious twitch.
The cure is a pair of uprated drive shafts part number RTR1371 which have a larger sliding member to better distribute the forces. The splines are PTFE (Teflon) coated to ensure consistent smooth operation. See below
