#1: Torsion bar woes... Help! Author: kingofcatastrophe, Location: Lancashire & CornwallPosted: Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:54 pm ---- So, the 180's been in my mates garage all day today, he managed to drop one side pretty quickly... but can't get the torsion bar out on the drivers side... and he's properly tried...
Any suggestions, people who've had and solved this problem...

Ps you have taken the lock washer out and cleaned all the grit out the way.

Author: Uz, Location: No Man's LandPosted: Sat Jul 07, 2012 2:38 am ---- Right if you can take the shocks out and then bolt a really long bar into place between the mounting points, from left to right (top and bottom) which will allow the trailing arms to stay in... getting them as tight as physically possible. You can actually smash ten folds of s**t out the bars just to get them out, obviously once you'd douzed them with a trade can of WD40, inside and out.
Only way we got them out the SW, but when we originally tried the right trailing arm was actually moving and it destroyed the bearing so those were replaced :/
