Torsion bar removal Blues. What happened here????

No issues during assembly that I recall. The rearward end still has plenty of long strand grease on it but as I said, the front was the issue even after the rear was out of the frame socket so definitely not under torsional load. The front of the bar has some standard grease still on it.
Is it possible that the front of the bar kind of hydro locked in the control arm socket??? That is all I can think of.
I'll take a better look at the bar and CA tonight and post pics. Was late and had to work today. Thanks.
