The re use of torsion bars / arbs is perfectly acceptable providing they are in good order, new bars are very expensive at times.

What I meant was them using bars that have lost too much across their section. It's the same principal as re-painting a coil spring. I would imagine a few axles they get back have pretty flaky bars! Smile

OR using 2 left hand bars on the same axle which usually ends up with your car being lop sided because the metal has been sprung one way for so long.

It does depend on the condition of the bars I know dis Big Grin
A moments silence please, for our brothers in the NAD-zone.
