how hard is it to change torsion bars in my driveway?

Ended up taking the whole dang K frame out, then using a hammer and pipe to pop them out of the frame mount.  Super easy.  Guess I'll order some .96 bars to replace 'em!

wow.....I've never had that much difficulty in getting those torsion bars out.   Everything comes apart in a pretty easy process....I guess maybe yours were rusted in place???

We were taking the K frame out anyway.  Took the four bolts out, lowered the K frame a couple inches and smacked it gently with the sledge.  After the K frame popped off we used a regular hammer and a small pipe on the rears.  Came out a little harder, but not too tough.  Bettery than trying to grab the greasy bar or mess around with it.  I imagine they've never been out before.  One of the K frame bolts was a real PAIN.

iut is Far easier to loosen the nut for th eLCA & pry both back togehter & just slide the LCA back into place

only way I do it, they usually come right out.
