The left side torsion bar on the Buskirk Stretch has suddenly sagged to the point we have run out of adjustment on the pork chop adjusting bolt. Does anyone have the size and length of the replacement bolt that will give the maximum adjustment?

Second question - torsion bar is heavier than stock, 1 3/8". Anyone know what it might be used on?

Just a thought but could the lower A arm socket be tearing, slipping or stretching to allow partial twisting in the A arm socket? You probably know of Steve Ferguson's socket reinforcement on A arms recommendation.
