Anyway, a guy is selling new Downey torsion bars on craigslist for $100. They are for a 2wd like mine. He wants $100 and Downey wants $158 new. I think I could get them for $75 cash...should I go for it? Something I would definitely use cuz from my understanding I won't be bottoming out so much. Thanks!

Thanks! Okay kinda dumb question...but torsion bars are like coils? They do the same thing...they provide support/rebound?

They store energy by twisting up instead of compressing like a coil. Yes, they function the same.
