gareth softley Newbie Location: purley Registered: 23 Sep 2013 Posts: 21 Status: Offline	Post #1 Started stripping down my rear torsion bar today. With the two 13mm bolts removed from the end caps on the ARB so it is free from the beam itself, should I be able to turn it freely??? may not be massively important but would be good to no.

I use the car for rallycross and last few meeting I haven't been able to stop the ass end bouncing I wonder if this could have been causing it

As it could be a sign your trailing arm is seized in position compared to other side ________________________________________ FRESHLY RE-FURBISHED GTI BEAMS FITTING AND LOWERING AVAILABLE.
