TORSION BAR SET, PORSCHE 911, 22 mm RATE (TUBULAR)
SKU 1822T
Category: Porsche Torsion Bars
A specialized front suspension component for the Porsche 911 enthusiast. These 22mm tubular torsion bars are engineered for those seeking the lightweight benefits of a hollow design while maintaining a stock spring rate equivalent. By utilizing a tubular (hollow) construction, these bars offer a superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to traditional solid bars, reducing unsprung weight without compromising the original factory ride quality.

Premium Construction
Material: High-grade 4340 aircraft alloy steel, selected for its resilience and ability to withstand high torsional stress in a tubular format.
Manufacturing: Centerless ground to ensure a precise 22mm outside diameter and a perfectly linear spring rate.
Heat Treatment: Through-hardened and shot-peened to maintain a consistent ride height and prevent the "sagging" common in aged factory components.
Finish: Industrial powder coating for maximum protection against corrosion and debris.
⚠️ Installation & Setup Notes
Weight Benefit: The tubular design reduces unsprung mass at the front of the vehicle, allowing the suspension to react more quickly to road imperfections compared to a solid bar of the same rate.
Spline Care: These bars feature factory-style splined ends. Ensure the female splines in the A-arms are clean and lubricated with a high-pressure waterproof grease during assembly to prevent "creaking."
Indexing: Due to the 22mm diameter, indexing is sensitive. Document your original bar position to ensure you can accurately set your desired ride height (factory or "Euro" spec).
