It depends. If the warp or kink is from letting the anchor bracket loose during adjusting the torsion bar it means the "T" panel has to be removed and straightened out. The bigger problem could be that the fiberglass that the anchor bracket is attached to is broken or flexing as you open or close the door. If this is the case everything has to be removed and repaired either by fiberglass repair methods or adding a steel bracket across the back section. If the warp or kink comes and goes as you open and close the doors the anchor bracket is moving. Be warned adjusting, removing or replacing the torsion bars requires the proper tools and experience or you could get hurt and or damage the rear glass and "T" panel. You don't need to remove the torsion bars to remove the "T" panel but you do need to remove both of them to fix the anchors or the fiberglass. Be careful not to scratch the torsion bars!
