Default 1971 GP Trunk Torsion rods

Grand Prix 71 trunk torsion rods I only need one, as it broke and the other rod can't keep the lid open even a little bit. Not sure if there are other options from other cars.

Hi Jim. I just removed a set from a 67 GP, but not sure if they are the same. They are advertised here under 67 GP. If I can help you, please let me know. Thanks. Jeff

Scott,

It appears to be 47" bend to bend and the fixed end is on the passager side with the 3 adjustment notches on the driver side So how do you tell which twist I have left or right?

Jeff thanks I think I saw your ad for torsion bars and thought I had better start looking for mine.....I'm not sure if they are the same size dimension as mine, but I appreciate the offer.

Jim.

Happy Easter, Jim. I just went and measured the Torsion Rods from the 67 GP I parted out and they measure 47 inches total length. If you are interested, please let me know. Jeff
