Hi all,
I have a '98 Explorer 2wd. I'm planning on replacing the upper and lower ball joints. Do I need to loosen the torsion bars in order to do it? I don't see anyone here mentioning that step, but like every "official" manual that I've found specifically mentions doing that.
Personally I can't see why I'd need to loosen the torsion bars since I'm not planning on removing the lower A-arm, but thought I'd throw this out there to make sure I'm not missing something.
