[DMCForum] Continued: Removing Torsion Bars (Not Farrar)



When you turn them the other way they crack -- very loudly. Dave uses
the torsion bars themselves to clean the spline retainers up by
tapping them on in an alternating teeter-totter fashion. Works
extremely well (slide on by hand afterwards). Of course the torsion
bars have to come out to do this.
