Cracked torsion bar tube.
Well, this is a bummer. My mechanic just called and while he was cleaning things up inside the engine compartment, he found a major crack in one of the rear torsion bar tubes. I did a search and couldn't find anything--does this happen often?
Anyway he found a salvage yard with a donor (a later, galvanized car) and is going to weld it in.
Anyone had this happen? Bad news, but glad he caught it now before the new engine went in.
