b torsion bars

[Hokie]

Nope.

Primary reason for switching the bars, was because they are heavier duty.. and Karol is running a Superlift, which leaves the bars exposed.

I think Gerald is the only one I've heard of breaking a Torsion Bar and that was from him coming down HARD on a rock (which caused a point stress concentration and failure)

I put the bars in Karol's truck because she has a lot of weight on the front of the vehicle (winch, skidplates, lift kit components, etc.), and I wanted to make sure that the truck didn't sag or nosedive under braking because of all the weight. If you don't have extra weight on the nose of the vehicle, I don't think you will see much difference in how much you can get out of a TT if you go from a B bar to a 1 bar. You WILL get a much stiffer ride as you go up in bar strength.

I stand corrected.
