Looking for a set of torsion bars for a 65 Imperial part number 2275508 and 508.
Yes I am building a AWB car. Also would like some pictures of how they made the original engine mounts.Do you want them for use on an Altered wheelbase car?
When you had the ends re sized did that affect the heat treat of the ends? How much was taken off the ends?I have a spare set of 510 and 511 bars (1.00" diameter) that have the hex ends machined down to B-body sockets. They are heavy, so shipping may be pricey.
do you know how much they had to take off each of the faces? was it like .005 or .250? I think the t bars are case hardened and wonder if they machined through the case hardness making the hex ends soft.Took them to a machine shop. They machined them on a mill using an indexing fixture and a special cutter. I gave them a b-body torsion bar and rear anchor for sizing. No excess heat involved.
