Torsion Bars? Go or No Go?
I just read the replacement procedure for Torsion bars for my 951. It doesn't sound very easy. Can anyone give any feedback on their experiences taking this on themselves?

It took me three days to remove my torsion bars. While it was stenuous at times, and frustrating at times, it is do-able. I followed the instructions from the Paragon web site. Not perfect instructions, but pretty good. I was lucky enough to use a friend's garage lift which had a shelf on it that the torsion tube rested on once lowered. The hardest parts were disconnecting the brake lines and pluging them while they drip on your arms, and trying to put the torsion tube back up evenly. I did the whole job by myself, although assistance is recommended. Good luck.
