Looking for new or second hand taution bars, the older straight bars not the ones with a shaped end. I recently broke one in half when accessing a service station driveway. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Are they Torsion bars perhaps?

If it broke in half then it was most likely cracked and the load made it flex past the limit point.
I would look very closely at the opposite side as it may be scored and soon to be in a similar state.

If you could provide a picture, it may help to ID the bars in question.

Contact Hayman Reece, quoting numbers stamped on the bar and hitch. If not too old, they may be able to supply.

There are 28 inch and 30 inch bars. I have a spare set of 28 inch trunnion bars, not use since I change to 30 inch bars. These are the ones with curved ends that can also be used on the HR dual cam anti-sway system.
If you relax at a faster pace you can get more relaxation in for a given time.
