as it helps to have everything else tight so that it doesn't move around as you are trying to break it free. Use lots of Kroil not only on the nut but on the other sides of the ears it passes through.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">Tim Rogers<br></font></span></div><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Apr 8, 2018 at 6:30 PM, Christopher Scarpulla <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cscarpulla@gmail.com" target="_blank">cscarpulla@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">The trick to the torsion bars is to replace them when they're not in tension, which is with the trunk closed, or close to closed.

I had to do this and replace a hinge years ago and it sucked. Then, years ago, one of the torsion bars popped out again and I've spent ages opening the trunk as a two-man or two-step operation, which is a pita. I seem to recall you have to insert the fixed end then twist it about 90 degrees to get et the other end seated, which is kind of hard without a helper, or shutting yourself in the trunk. <span class="m_-5263947763850713169m_-2422932013957087627HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><div><br></div></font></span><div><span class="m_-5263947763850713169m_-2422932013957087627HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">David</font></span><div><div class="m_-5263947763850713169m_-2422932013957087627h5"><br><br>On Sunday, April 8, 2018, Ray Kawski <<a href="mailto:rkawski@e-rak.com" target="_blank">rkawski@e-rak.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Got a heat gun? Lightly heat them with the heat gun and they will turn back to the correct color. Don’t get too close or you will have mush.<br>
