[DML] Re: plans for torsion bar adjustment jig





A way around the problem of not having the jig is to remove the rear
sunshade. It will take you a bit longer to do than having the jig but
if you do not do many adjustments it may be a better idea than
building the jig. In any case be sure to use good quality tools. Do
not cheap out or try with 3/8 tools. Use a 1/2 inch tool with a 1/2
inch breaker bar and put a piece of pipe on it at least 4 feet long.
Be careful of the sharp edge that is exposed on the underside of the
"Tee" roof panel when you remove the plastic valence. It may take you
some time to readjust the sunshade when you put it back so mark it's
position before removal. I like to stick a piece of rubber between the
torsion bar and the rear hinge so when you mess with it and it moves
around it does not get scratched on the hinge. If it won't fit you can
just put your fingers around the torsion bar and pull it away from the
hinge to get room. I use a piece of rubber from an old truck  inner
tube. You can cut a strip and leave it there after you finish if you want.
