I was reading that there are 3 types of torsion bars...#1, B, and F. Where can I find the ratings or which is better than the other, etc ? Just wondering b/c I see some have B's then switched them out for #1's. Looked at mine and it has F's.

umm, not the best link but here is a part number for stronger Torsion Bars if thats what you are looking for. maybe this will help :-/

 

On a new truck like yours you won't be able to tell a difference unless you get a huge heavy bumper. I think it will just make the front a little stiffer.

 

1 is highest spring rate, F is lowest. Going all the way from F's to 1's would make a definite difference in ride harshness and probably wouldn't be a good idea for a daily driver.

1 = 1.09" diameter and bar rate is 1325 lb-in/degree
B = 1.06" diameter and bar rate is 1230 lb-in/degree
F = 1.03" diameter and bar rate is 1130 lb-in/degree

 

What torsion bars do i have on my 2000 XLT ranger 4x4 :)

 

Look on the inside door sticker

 

^^ under spring code. That'll tell you.
I know i have #1's and they have sagged so bad i have less ground clearance at the front cross member with 33's then a stock xl.

 

I plan on having a steel Road Armor type bumper built for mine so am prolly gonna need those #1's. Just gotta wait til my warranty runs out.

 

Youch..!

I think, you need some wrench time with replacements..!!
