Q: How do you remove and install the assembly of the torsion bar, torque arm, and height control arm on Honda Passport?
A: To remove the assembly, first loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands before removing the wheel. Mark the relationship of the torsion bar to the torque arm and the height Control Arm using white paint, ensuring to count and record the number of threads showing on the height adjustment bolt before removing it along with the associated nuts. Next, remove the torque arm nuts and bolts, then lift the height control arm and the rear end of the torsion bar to take out the torque arm, torsion bar, and height control arm as a single unit. Detach the torque arm and height control arm from the torsion bar, inspecting all components for damage or wear, and replace any seriously damaged parts. For installation, apply multi-purpose grease to the splines of the torsion bar, then slide the torque arm and height control arm onto it, aligning with the previously made marks. Raise the assembly into position and reattach the torque arm to the lower control arm without tightening the nuts yet. Lower the height control arm into the frame bracket, install the adjustment bolt and nuts, and tighten until the same number of threads are visible as before. Finally, tighten the torque arm retaining nuts, install the wheel, remove the jackstands, lower the vehicle, and tighten the wheel lug nuts. Drive the vehicle to an alignment shop for a front end alignment check and adjustment if necessary.
