Do Torsion Bars Wear Out?

Why would anyone click DISAGREE on something that was clearly possible?


READ before you respond. I didn't write that it ALWAYS happens. You apparently DISAGREE that SOMETIMES this occurs? So it has never happened at all? Ever? Not even once in 50 years?

I've seen some arguments on mopar sites where people argue about wether u should have /6 bars with a big block on a street car. Maybe he though u were referring to this issue and was offended?

I know, it's stupid. What's more is, they click disagree and then are too pussified to come back and explain themselves.

You are implying that /6 bars aren't up to the challenge. They are. I did READ. I disagreed with what you wrote. I wasn't offended, clearly you were. Here is my non-pussyfied response and explanation. It would have come sooner but I actually have life outside of my job where I access this site.

A bar that is worn out doesn't know what application it was built for. A worn out bar is a worn out bar. I've seen 340 bars in a 340 car that were whipped. I've seen /6 bars in a /6 that are worn out.

The other reason I disagreed is because the common myth regarding weight variations between engines has been widely disproved yet some will cling to it. I see comments like yours on other threads where people reffer to big blocks like they weigh some astronomical amount more than the other engines. I.e. big blocks are nose heavy, can't hook up, can't handle, small blocks are so much lighter and whip the heavy big block cars etc.

Note that you got 2 "disagree" reactions on both of your posts, so I'm not alone.
