James Thanks for the information. Many earlier posts (going back years now) referred to the cyrogenic process used in the making of the torsion bars and inferred that remanufacturing them would be prohibitively expensive. Now, it appears that for a mere $5000 you can produce 12 units. This raises some questions. Will these bars be made in the sames fashion as the originals? If not, will they be the same (or better) in lifting ability, lifespan, etc. etc. Hope this doesn't strike you as "mouthing off". It is simply a sincere attempt at further clarification.
