Thicker torsion bars - cwspellowe - 24-10-2012

Need a thicker set of torsion bars for the estate as the back end needs firming up so I can still use the boot.

Would take a set of 21mm's, but if anyone has any larger kicking about.... ninja

Some guy on a Facebook group had some 25.5ones made up for him :-)


RE: Thicker torsion bars - cwspellowe - 24-10-2012

Yeah can get them made up, for instance Pug1off do them, but have you seen the price!?


RE: Thicker torsion bars - kernow_joe - 24-10-2012

so standard estates are thicker than gti's?

so no help chris


RE: Thicker torsion bars - cwspellowe - 24-10-2012

Late late HDI estates are thicker yes, but normal estates are only 20mm

If my 23.5's ever get found, (lost in transit Angry)

I might be persuaded to sell the 21's


RE: Thicker torsion bars - cwspellowe - 24-10-2012

Bastard. I wanted to buy them! quite odd though how a few things went missing from that seller!


RE: Thicker torsion bars - cwspellowe - 24-10-2012

Just had a chat with a friend who works at Peugeot, even with discount he can only get them down to £194 with VAT, they're £212 new for the pair. can get 23mm's for just over £300...

TBH, it's not the seller's fault, my R70 was fine, and that was the same package.

Just the bars decided to make a bid for freedom out of the end of the parcel.

I got all excited when i received an empty cardboard tube..
