I have a bottle jack. The bars aren't cut all the way back to the sub-frame. So, I will be able to put a sleeve (maybe a impact socket) on the end of the torsion bar (its cut fairly square but the sleeve will give more surface area) and then jack against the frame. I'll see if that works. If not, I'll get some wax and borrow my buddy's acetelyne torch and try to use the torch/wax combo. 1966 Barracuda 1968 Barracuda convertible 1930 Ford Model A (soon to be hemi equipped) 2006 Dodge 3500 4X4 CTD Quad Cab
