Stubborn torsion bars
#8
yup, that's how I did the last ones, the gauge may go well past 8 tons but its only a 10 ton press so I don't like to crank it too far, give it 7 or 8 and apply heat, or a doink with a hammer, and ping they go.

you do have to be quick if you apply heat though, they soon cool down and you'll be back up at peak tonnage again.

scaffold tube is a bit soft.
need a part number? http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/ and http://service.citroen.com/ will sort you out.
