Yes. I flared a piece of electrical conduit that I could reach in there and 
surround the stump, then push the piece out with a long rod from the other 
side. Took 2 people.

You can also cut off an M8 bolt and weld it to a rod, then screw that in the 
head of the torsion bar and push it out.

Of course you have to get the rusty head of the bar loose in its socket first.
