ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a torsion bar assembly for use in a vehicle suspension system. The torsion bar is elongated and has axially adjacent sections, one section being more rigid than the other. A protruding bracket is fixed to the torsion bar proximate the meeting point between two sections of the torsion bar. A stop is fixed to the vehicle and disposed to engage the protruding bracket when torsional forces acting on the torsion bar exceed a predetermined level.
