Outstanding idea!!!

How in the world did you drill the cross holes?????? I'm guessing from the outside and through the connector fitting before tapping. Just getting ready to do this AND I'M CONFUSED. Thanks

Still didn't see where your distributor vacuum was hooked up.

Where is your distributor vacuum? Where you are showing your wiper vacuum is where my distributor vacuum is locate. This is on a 1950 8A Flathead. ALSO- IS THE SPACER 1" THICK?

I got an original 8 BA carb at a garage sale and I don’t know how much it’s worth. Decent condition and could be cleaned up real well. Any ideas?

Genius!

How is the ride now?

I was in this same situation, then at a friend's recommendation, I purchased an Air Hammer. After soaking both ends of the Torsion Bars overnight, using 120 PSI from my Air Compressor connected to the Air Hammer, 10 seconds a side on the Torsion Bars from the rear and both keys were out.

Hi. Is there a good full body kit that allows you to lower close to the ground for easy access (just found out I may have MS and now walking has become difficult and I have to use a walker) Then easy it raises back to good riding heights. Thanks for any information you may have.

genius!

At least yours isn’t on the truck lmao idk how tf I’m about to get this sob off but she’s comin

Hi. I'm about to install the Artec truss on my Dana 30 and wondering if the pinion seal melted during the process of heating up the differential, and is the reason you're replacing it. Thanks.

So true

Save yourself a lot of time and cussing and get a $15 air hammer from harbor freight. It will drive the most stubborn bar out. Also handy for axles and wheel bearings.

Holy shit! I just did this this morning! Last week I spent 18 hours trying heat soak heat soak bang bang bang and no even a hair. Said screw it and split the keys! Wish I saw this last week instead of racking my knuckles, elbows, head and brain.. so I’m not posting mine! THIS IS THE WAY!!

Dude I Feaken Love You!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 I'm doing keys on a 95 from Northern Missouri and they rusted to f*ck!!! I'll let you know how it goes for me tomorrow!!!!

Just wanted to give an update. This method WORKED for me on both the passenger and driver sides. I didn't attempt to drill the keys until I was confident the torsion bars were loose in the lower control arm. After drilling the holes and chiseling as much material out as possible, I still had to add some heat and I put the torsion bar removal tool back on and cranked on it putting as much stress on it as I could, then releasing it. This combination made it so I could hit the torsion keys out easily. Thanks for the video, I don't think I would have got these off otherwise.

Just checking that you didn’t have any problems getting the second torsion key off. I’m in the same situation. I have hammered on this for over two hours, I’ve had an air hammer and heat. I’m going to keep going for another hour but if not I want to try this method. Before that. I just wanted to make sure there were no other issues. Thanks

I am in the process of doing this now on my 2005 Silverado. How were you able to get the new key in? Were you able to move the torsion bar forward towards the front of the truck? The torsion bar is badly rusted into the control arm on my truck and I am afraid I won't be able to move the torsion bar forward enough to allow me to put the new key in. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
