Here's a little truth about torsion bars that you rarely hear. Your bars are clocked so that they are wound up tight enough that at correct ride height, the spring is supporting the weight of the car. If you unbolt the tension bolts to remove them and remove your wheels so that the control arms are in "full droop", you will not only unwind them but you'll go too far in the opposite direction of normal tension to the point that you're binding up the joint with the weight of the control arms, spindle, rotor etc. solution? Jack that k member back up, thread the bolts in so that its hanging on the frame and place a floor jack under the control arm. Raise the jack slowly until you hit the "sweet spot" where the spring is completely unloaded and then it will whack out of there easy peezy. If you don't have the T bar removal tool and want to keep your bars, grab a 3"X1" piece of sheet metal, wrap it around the bar in a U shape, grab it with the vise grips and smack it with the BFH. If it resists, play with the jack height till you get it right. BOOM!
