Spray your torsion bars on both ends with penetrating oil for a week before you plan the install. depending on where you live, they can be rusted pretty solid.

Tip one, don't use that torsion bar unload tool. Rent a three jaw gear puller from autozone so you don't slip off and hurt yourself. For the rear, undo the shocks and sway bar. that will give you enough clearance to slide the spacer in.

I used that tool and got along just fine. make sure you have the peg in the top. definitely start spraying the torsion bars on both ends and be prepared to have to beat on them. I have heard to hit them back before trying to hit them forward. I used an air hammer and after lot of pb blaster and air hammer they came out. shock spacers are nice but the 5100s are the way to go for shocks.

I've used the same tool twice, zero complaints.
