another torsion bar question - 03/04/12 08:18 PM

Ok i did a search and all it did was add more confusion. I have a set of new torsion bars and one is stamped .895L/80 and the other is .894R/111. I'm assuming the L designates left as in drivers side and the R designates right as in passenger is this correct? What does the 80 and 111 mean stamped on each bar? Thanks for the help

ok i know this is a dumb question but would LH would be considered drivers side and RH would be considered passenger side then correct? Not sure if it is taken in the perspective of facing the front or facing the rear of the car.

Yes left would be your left (dr) side as you sit in the drivers seat

I just removed my bars as well. I'm not sure what the other numbers mean. My passenger bar is marked; 774R 433 on one end and 774R UUB on the other. I haven't cleaned up the driver side yet to read it.
