for future reference....put a floor jack under the LCA to take the load off the UCA so you can pull them without loosening the torsion bar.

Sorry about the unfinished post...
Library auto cut off.
I retained my newish Gen 1 brake hoses.
I put my gen 1 brake hose brakets back on the gen 2 arms. Using gen 2 brakets -the upper brake hose gets pulled pretty hard when the upper bump stops are trimed to half hiegth.
Anybody with the same setup should double check the hoses.
