Hey everyone. I was getting ready to do the run of the mill torsion twist on my truck today. I noticed that one of the bolts was run in almost to the stop, and one was backed way out. I also noticed that the one that was run all the way in looked bent, I went to try and move the bolt, and it f*&^ing busted on me. anybody else have this problem. it almost looks like it was run up there with a pneumatic gun or somthing. So I ordered another bolt, should be here in a couple days. very frustrated right now. oh well, the bolt is 8.00 bucks and shouldnt be to hard to fix. I just got this truck 2 weeks ago, so I do not know the history of this truck. I know it had been at the local ford dealer to get some front end work done on it a couple years ago. I am thinking they are the one's that screwed it up.

You'll never know who messed up the bolt. Doesn't really matter much now.

Todd over at Zabteck Technologies has the longer torsion bar bolts for sale, I only tell you this becuase if you plan on doing a TT and the one bolt was almost topped out you're not gonna get any lift out of that one, just saying.

Here's a link to his site, he also runs the mysporttrac.com site.
