    yesterday i ripped out my passenger torsion bar. the bolt didnt break suprisingly. but the bracket where it bolts in got destroyed. i tryed to bend it back but theres no way i can fix it unless i buy a new torsion bar. but in the mean time i wanted to run no torsion and just have a bumpstop. is that okay??

    Picture of the part you need? I have a whole frame minus the front clip...I could hook u up...oh I just read you need the whole torsion bar...I could get you mine off my 93....if it hasn't been sent to the scrap yard yet...it'll check and see. Just pay for shipping and I won't make a dime off of it to help ya out

    Might as well re-index it so the key isnt hanging below the frame

    The arm on the end of the torsion bar slips off, you don't need the whole bar.

    If this had happened a few months ago I'd drop one by on my way through your town. It's not really worth shipping but if you can't find one locally myself or someone else will help you out.
