Hi All, I live in Australia and have found it very getting Torsion Bars there appears to be plenty around for the 4WD but nil for the 2WD (mine is a 2009),whats the difference between the 4WD & 2WD ie: length diameter?
I have found some for a 1996 L300 but not sure if they are the same as the 2009.....the drive line appears to be the same.
The reason I need to replace them are I keep going through lower ball joints they last around 2 months as I can feel the suspension bottom out on the bump stops over most bumps,I also have a 1994 L300 and that's so smooth over bumps!
 
The L300 front suspension torsion bar between 2WD and 4WD are the same. There was the standard torsion bar and the heavy-duty suspension torsion bar, but I don't think the vehicles for the Australian market had the heavy-duty suspension option.

Thanks mate, I did a lot of searching and found this https://www.wanderingpeso.com/vehicle/parts/ and seen that the standard Torsion bars part number is LH - MB430180 & RH - MB430181 which (to my surprise are still visible) are the same as mine can be replaced with Dobinsons TB43-300 ,I almost ordered these https://www.4wddepot.com.au/pair-of-front-replacement-torsion-bars-for-mitsubi~30556 but found they are longer than mine (970 mm or there abouts) but these are 1227mm.......now just got to find them at a reasonable price.
