are there any actual bushings on the torsion bars themselves or could i dip the car with the torsion bars intact. i did notice a couple of grease fittings on the front of the car where the bars are, so i am guessing there are some sort of bushings.

i am wondering, since the bushing are all bad anyways, if i can just dip the car with most of the suspension in place. i am going to replace all the rubber anyways.

i don't know i am just kinda lost at this point on what to do next.

i am worried about taking the suspension apart...it looks like the torsion bars are connected with those levers on the front and back and it looks like if i took anything apart they would fling back at me and that would suck big time.

what would the pros/cons be to media blasting vs dipping. seems like dipping would get into all the crevasses better.

thanks,

Hank
