Just thought I'd let you know how things worked out with this damaged
torsion bar:  It didn't.  We had to install a new bar.  With some very
small
files I was able to clean up the end and then with a plastic hammer I
tapped
the retaining plate on & off several times until it fit like a new bar.
Then when we went to put the bar back on, the end grew too fat again to
fit
in the retaining plate.  Bummer.

The moral of the story: Be sure the torsion bar is fully seated.  Don't
over-torque a bar to make up for a weak strut.  Hope that the previous
owner
didn't phuque it up.
