There are no bars on the back. Just coils.

Is it the door or the frame of the garage that will hit. Some doors you can adjust.

Can something be done to the coils to lower the back about .75"?

I WANT M/T'S!!

RE: Torsion Bars

Yes and No. Yes there a few ways (torch a coil off, squash a couple together)........But NO, DON'T DO IT. It's unsafe andthe ride would suck.

I recomend going to lowes or home depot and getting about 700 to 800lb of concrete block and put it in the bed. That will bring her down an inch or so

RE: Torsion Bars

Had the new tires put on today and it FITS into the garage, it's as tight as a ... (insert whatever tight joke you prefer)!! WOOT!! And I went with the M/T's, cause that's what I wanted. It doesn't matter to me that they don't get as much wear, the ride's not quite as good, or there more expensive. I work to get what I want ... not what's practical!
