Torsion bar nut split in half
I decided to try and lower my 62 front end based off of the knowledge i read on this forum.
I lifted the front end and put it on jacks and started turning the bolts. Each bolt was even when i put it back on the ground. I went back under to take a look and see if the nuts were easier to turn. Luckily for me i left the jack under the frame as well. A slight turn on the bolt split the nut in have and the truck came crashing down on the jack stand. After barely squeezing out from under the truck, counting my blessings, i saw the top nut was split. How do i fix it now? Any ideas on where i can get the nut replced? |

Whoa close call! Good to know you took precautions and made out ok.
There are a few listings in local CL that may have the part but he's in Menifee. https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/...837285090.html
