Because modified vehicles may have suspension components that differ from the original configuration, verify torsion bar length and suspension type before ordering.

Torsion bar diameter has a major effect on rear spring rate. Increasing the diameter produces a progressively stiffer torsion bar.

The 26mm #1226 provides a firmer rear spring rate than the 24mm and 25mm versions, placing it further into the performance-oriented range while still leaving several larger-diameter options available.

Torsion bar selection should take vehicle weight, suspension setup, intended use and desired ride characteristics into consideration.

Torsion Bar Charts and Specs.

Sway-A-Way torsion bars are marked for identification and left/right orientation. Install each torsion bar on the corresponding side indicated by the manufacturer marking.

Proper torsion bar indexing determines rear ride height and preload. Installation should be performed using appropriate suspension service procedures and equipment.
