Re: [DMCForum] Torsion bar jig



I have a copy of the torsion bar jig.  Give me a snail mail address and
I'll
send you a photo copy of it.  I don't have it in electronic form.
Basically
this is just a wooden jig that allows adjustment of the torsion bar
without
removing the rear louvers.  The only advantage to using it is that you
don't
have to remove the rear louvers.  There are a few disadvantages:

You need a really long-ass extension for your ratchet.

You probably shouldn't be adjusting the torsion bars unless you first know
that the sub-T-panel has not come unglued.  It bothers me when I see guys
adjusting torsion bars at shows while it is obvious that the sub-panel is
loose and causing problems such as raising the T-panel causing it to catch
and bend against the louvers (and then of course cracking the louvers
too).
A loose sub-panel will also allow the torsion bars to move closer to the
hinges where it will rub on them.

Personally, I never plan to build one of these jigs or even use one if I
had
it.  Removing the louvers isn't a big deal especially if you use a swivel
extension on your ratchet to reach the hinges.
