    Actually, all E-Bodies are not created equal. The 70's had 2 torsion bars, 71 should have only had one. Let me know what you need to see. Here is a shot from each end of my 70.

    the position of the bar will change also due to the weight of the trunck lid , spoilers & wings require more tension to keep them up due to the extra weight
