Help getting Torsion keys OFF

[PlazaEJ]

Usually, it's the control arm end of the torsion bar that is difficult to break free.
Did you spray penetrant on that end also?

Not as much, I'll try doing that

i used a pneumatic air hammer with a round flat head bit . Came right out

 

[skaffy03]

Can I rent that or do I need to buy the bit?

You'll have to buy it. I bought the air hammer and bit at harbor freight for around 25$. Probably not the best quality but I've had it for a few years and it still works great

Thanks for all the tips, everyone! A $20 air hammer and some kroil knocked those keys out in about 10 minutes!

Front needs lowered down but I got too hungry to finish haha
