Re: [T3] Strange Days


Krys,
It's always something... Here's my guess, as this is
what happened to me recently:
 The noise you heard was probably your torsion bar
slipping from the spines. If the bar slides back at
all (toward the tranny) it can lose contact with
enough of the splines that keep it in place. The bars
are under great tension and when they slip out  -BANG!

Pull off the torsion bar cover plate (4 bolts) and see
if it is still in the splines. If not, you'll have to
re-adjust both sides. I had to tap the torsion bar
back out toward the wheels from the other side when
this happened to my car. It was also a car the had
been badly lowered by the p.o.
-Phil
BTW, where was it raining yesterday?
