Torsion bar key tensioner


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys, I am having a tough time trying to find the torsion bar key pre tensioning device. Of course my dealer has no idea what I'm talking about so I thought I'd hit the best source around...you guys! I bought some adjustable keys so I can crank in the required lift I want and still have thread left on the adjusting bolt. My drivers side bar is so weak I can bottom the bolt out and still only be about 1/2 inch above the lower bumper on my 1/2 ton Z71 (99). So instead of buying new bars I thought I'd try the adjustable keys first. The problem is when I index the key where I want it I don't have a clamp that will work. My gear puller doesn't have enought thread and my large C-clamp just slides down the key. I've seen some sort of special clamp, where can I get my hands on one?

 

Thanks
