how do you bag with torsion bars?


Recommended Posts

this is a little OT and I know there's no real reason to do it but has anyone ever done a H1 on bags? to drop it that is, I think that would be interesting

Wouldn't leaving the Torsions in be a little counter productive, as torsion bars act as a "twisting" spring. 'Bags are essentially replacing the springs and leaving the torsion bars in would stress them to the point of eventually failing, resulting in a part of your suspension breaking and possibly causing catastrophic results... Steve and Ray win this one.

No I didnt misunderstand or miss hear. I called art and asked do I leave in or remove my torsion bars with there air struts. the guy told me keep them in just lower them all the way. I said are you sure and he put me on hold...... Got back on the phone 3 minutes later and told me he asked and yes I leave them in. Air bag it told me I had to leave them in as well. I talked it over with my neighbor that is a mechanic and he said I would leave them in. As the other guy on here said his friend took them off and could hardly get his front end up. the torsion key acts as a spring. so if you can lower it all the way down with the keys. then when the airbag goes to raise up the truck the torsion bar helps. I did see meade cut them off. thats why I was asking how they worked. I saw him drop the front end but never raise it up. I asked my neighbor it didnt make sence that if semi trucks could use airbags why couldnt air bags get my front end up. and he reminded me that semi still have leaf springs and the air bags just help.

WOuld like to hear from Meade how he really thought they worked upwards rasing.... Not a advertising video that they work great. how do they really work. both companies told me air struts ride sucks... yet the other guy said truck rides like on a cloud.... companies that sell the product say it sucks though..... hmmmmmm
