Someone that knows metallurgy could better give an idea if it would be an answer.

Re: I was thinking.......
Maybe if the H3's sell well in Austraila ARB might get on the ball with suspensions and lockers for us.
I put heavy duty T-bars (from Downey) in my Toyota truck and they worked great I had a winch on it and it was about 1-1.5" higher than stock. They were larger diameter.
I have aslo seen some progressive (2-stage) t-bars on a toyota.
T-Bars are a bit more complicated than leaf springs and ad -leaves

Re: I was thinking.......
I received an email from the president of ARB USA just the other day.. He explained to me that they are working on a front and rear locker along with new front and rear bumpers for the H3... He said that they should be available sometime in mid 2007....

Re: I was thinking.......
Benefit #1: Sway-A-Way Torsion bars eliminate hard bottoming when off roading or towing heavy loads
Benefit #2: Sway-A-Way Torsion bars improve vehicle handling on the street.
Benefit #3: Sway-A-Way Torsion bars provide a more consistent spring rate, providing the driver with better vehicle control of lifted or lowered vehicles. All torsion bars are precision machined to assure superior quality, greater
consistency, and unmatched reliability. Plus bars are epoxy powder coated for corrosion resistance.
HA!!! Thanks Para
