I recently purchased a 1963 Valiant Signet 200. It came with several boxes of spare parts. Among them are 2 pair of torsion bars. One set is marked 890L and 890R,which cross to 2535890 and 891. These are used,but appear in excellent condition. In addition there is another unmarked set. I do not need these but would like to make them available to someone who can use them. They are somewhat heavy and cumbersome, and I am not interested in shipping them.I am in Western Washington. Not really interested in selling them,but if someone has a front bench seat that fits my valiant, I would be willing to trade for them. Otherwise lrt me know your interest, they need a home. Thanks, Alan |

Can you measure the diameter of the unwanted bars: 1. to make sure they are a matched set. 2. to inform any perspective buyyers as to what rate/diameter they are. Maybe put a post in the parts for sale section of this forum for any parts that you wish to "part" with. Cheers! Greg |

If you have a dial caliper, you might measure the diameters directly. That would avoid having to sleuth the part numbers. All the best, Lou |

Those are .850" bars, so stock 273/318 V-8 bars, or later Slanty w/AC &/or disc brakes.
