My father managed to get the passenger side torsion bar almost all the way in, except the only problem is, its jammed now! We cant pull it out or push it in and were trying not to strip the splines. Anyhow can somebody save the day by telling me how to fix the error, also is there a cap that comes off the front of the A-Frame?

Loosen the two 19 mm bolts that hold the cross member in. This will allow the torsion bars more room to slide in and not hit the bottom of the tub. You will have to pry the crossmember down slightly to gain the room you need. When done.. tighten the bolts back up.
I'm pretty sure your torsion bars are hitting the tub as you try and slide them in... also be aware that 911 and 914 torsion bars have a different spline count and the 911's will NOT work in a 914 control arm. B |
