After figuring out my Lifting Issues(not wanting to raise/handle wanting to come out while cranking and top slamming down) with my Truck Camper, I placed an order for new Heco Lifting Parts(Rack Gears,Gear Housing,Vinyl Rails,Slides and Handle).
I was getting ready for the new parts by disconnecting the whole System and found no Spring Tension on the Roof Support Bars at all. When I took the Torsion Bar Anchor Brackets off, I found that the Inner Torsion Bars were completely removed from inside of the Support Bars. The Springs with the Hex Couplers were there just no Inner 1/2" Hex Bars.
Does anyone know if I can get replacement Inner Bars from somewhere?
Are they "Special" Material?
I found 1/2" Hex Bar from a local Metal Supplier cheap($15 for 5' of Bar).
Does anyone also know of how to Pretension the Bars?
I'm still waiting on some Instructions from the Parts Supplier(It's been a couple of weeks for the Instructions from them).
Thanks in advance for any Info.
