Help me find #1 Torsion bars..

Hey, I'm at work so I don't really have much time to google stuff. Can anyone tell me where they purchased their number 1 torsion bars or the part number I'm looking for? My truck has 75K on it and I'm looking into replacing them.


Also, do I have to buy specifically a torsion bar bolt to replace the bolt or is there a strong equivalent. I dunno about you guys but i hate the torsion bar bolt because I've rounded off the head.


Thanks for the help and I live in Alaska (99801) so if you post a link make sure they ship here, lol.

You can use grade 8 hardware or stronger and be fine.

tbars can only be bought from the dealership if you want them new.

104.65 for the right side
103.80 for the left side

both prices pulled from tasca. MSRP is around 160
I got mine for 85ish a side for my old truck at cost like 3 years ago

lol Tasca just called me from "warwick - RI". I assume they just realized shipping is gonna suck *** to alaska. I didn't answer because its 5:50 here (aka 9:50 there) so deff not an appropriate time to be calling, lol.

Thats what I figured, I was checking because they should already know the price. I wouldn't pay any more if they tried to add to it.

Seems to be 60$ instead of 32$ shipping.

here's their shipping policy, TascaParts.com

I think they're probably not jackasses so I won't fight them about it. Being in Alaska you learn you have to bite the bullet on shipping sometimes.

Well heck. $60 doesn't seem too bad really, considering their size and weight.

yeah well hopefully they dont send it ground from RI, that'd suck ***. But it'll have to fly part of the way here for sure

If you can ask a price and tell me what shipping might be I could pay for it+ shipping and even send down some fish or something :)


And Tasca too expensive, + not worth it to ship from east coast ground. Will take too long. I honestly should've done this months ago!
