im in talks with a guy who works with metal he makes a removal tool for the Alfa romeo, so ive asked him about one for a 206 just after how much interest there would be for one, it will work the same way as the 30mm socket .... so would you be interested in one?
they wont be expensive either!! around the 20 pound mark + p&p

Nothing is easier than using a sledge hammer. Seized torsion bars need brute forced not delicate little tools.

True hammer is Easier, tryed the bolt method once and snapped the bolt so never tryed it that way since.

how about if i had a a very high tensile bar made with an m10 thred on one end a large nut half way down (welded into place) to wind it into the torsion bar and a flat surface on the other end to hit with a BIG hammer, atleast then you wont damge the threads while hitting the torsion bar

Sounds like a idea, I normally push a smaller bolt into bar and hit on that (if you use right size the head gets disformed and can't get it out)
Can you draw a diagram?
