[DML] Torsion bar BLUES



Hello list,
Today with the help of my father we tried to put the torsion bars back in 
my car. First we tried a 1/2 pull bar with an adapter to 3/8 and the adapter 
broke off at 135 lbs of torque. We decided not to ruin the door and went to 
Sears and TRIED to get a NICE 3/8 allen with a 1/2 inch drive. The guy says 
Sears doesnt make one w/ a half inch drive so we will have to go from 1/2 to 
3/8 with an adapter(again). He said it wont break "It's Craftsman". has 
anyone else done this? using an adapter? I am leaving for spring break 
later this week and wont be able to enjoy it knowing my doors wont open.(u 
know what I mean, don't you?) I have brand new PJ Grady struts and have 
never opened a DeLorean door that actually worked how it was supposed to. 
how fast should the doors come up? If anyone can help me with these two 
questions please email me. 
And if you are wondering why the torsion bars are out. My car was hit on 
the passenger side LONG AGO and got a brand new door and the drivers side 
bar wasnt tight enough so it had to come out also.

Thank you
David
