Here's what I use---

Homemade torsion bar puller (disassembled):



Homemade torsion bar puller (mounted snugly on breaker bar masquerading as a T-bar...rubber handle would be control arm end of T-bar...hammer head is addressing face of puller which is struck to break T-bar loose). Don't forget to take all weight off front suspension, remove T-bar C-clips and unload T-bar anchor bolts in lower control arms before swinging the hammer!

Thanks for the verification on the torsion bars...!! I will follow the proceedure..!! As for the upper ball joints, I am replacing the upper control arms with the 73-76 setup. I'm hoping I'll just have to un-bolt the current arms and not mess with un-hooking the existing upper ball joint. Well, since I have to release the torsion bars......I may just go ahead and replace the bars with new ones.....What do you think for size ? .87 or .89 ???
Thanks Matt

by the way....how's your 66 Dart coming along..??

I don't stop here often, but in reading your post, you can't use the 73-76 upper control arm with small bolt 10" drums or with small bolt discs. The ball joint won't fit the spindle.
