Removing K-frame?
I used a tool I got from Mancini to whack the torsion bars backward. Just remember to completely undo the bolt to get the tension off. Since you have the UCA separated the upper bumper rubber for the UCA won't matter. I couldn't get my torsion bars back in until I removed those but I had the UCA attached to the spindle.
On the parts car fish I had to cut a torsion bar as the bastid would not go back.
