Re: [DML] Re: Driver Side Torsion Unit

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think you should take the original claim to task, not Dave's reply. He 
was simply stating that to use the torsion bar to do more of the work is 
a bad idea given the failures of front door hinges on original bars, and 
the added "twist" then placed on a door. Do you really need figures to 
back that up? Sounds like common sense to me.
