The proper way to do this?

So today I was finishing up my static drop(something I've done before) when the bolt on the pass. side torsion bar broke. The bar hit me in the hand and I thought it was broken, scared the s@!% out of me. I did have the front end off the ground. Like I said I've done this with other truck but not a mazda. It was more of a pain then other front ends. So now I need to know the proper way to install the torsion bar without breaking a bone.

your lucky all you got was hit on the hand....

you MUST have the front end compleatly off the ground...no ifs ands or butts

and it takes the tension off the suspension

hah thats crazy b/c when i was turning my torsions down the same happend to me so instead of replacen the torsions i took em out and bout to bag it..
