I am trying to remove my A-Arms from my front suspension, but can't seem to get the torsion bar to pull out from the inside, is there a secret I don't know about??
Everything else is loosened up!! |

First remove the adjuster bolt at the rear of the a-arm (the bolt that adjusts the ride height) and the adjuster cap
There's another bolt at the rear of the a-arm that mounts it to the crossmember. Remove that too At the front of the A-arm, there's a cover plate. There's an access hole for an allen bolt. Remove the cover Now remove the 2 bolts that hold the front of the a-arm to the chassis and you can slide the a-arm out of the crossmember No need to heat up the bushings or anything like that... HTH cheers, Jeroen |
