hi there,

I am familiar with using spring compressors when renewing macphersion
struts but how does one go about removing the load from torsion bars on
a Mitsubishi L200 for damper change? thanks,

S

Jack the vehicle, place on stands, then jack under the torsion bar arm,
remove the strut ball joint, then lower the jack as far as necessary.
