HELP! HELP! I noticed the issue when the car was parked in the driveway.

When turning the steering wheel to the left or right the upper torsion arm
pulls out by 1/2 inch! Both passenger and driver. Both torsion arms arm
still securely bolted / clamped. The movement seems to happen from within
the upper beam area.

Could the upper torsion bar have snapped? Stabilizer bar toast?

I'm sorry for the simplistic explanation.

Thanks for your time!

Jared
