Awhile back trying to fix a trunk issue and while removing the torsion bars one of the Torsion Bar Placement Holder bolts sheared off, currently using trunk shocks that I do not care for anymore.. I want to re-install the torsion bar system but need advice on repairing/replceing the sheared off bolt..

Just installed a set of the shocks from Camp 914. I'm very pleased with the look and function. Trunk operation is smooth and light. Removing the torsion bars also cleaned up the engine bay.

I know it's heresy but open air driving is not my thing. If someone made a steel top conversion kit, or better yet did the conversions for a price, I would be so in on it. |
