   Hi,I'm looking to buy some 22mm torsion bars but don't really want to spend 350+ on aftermarket ones so I was wondering if there would be any torsion bars from other models that would also fit the Saxo? No problem with the ARB which you can get the 24 from the 106 GTI but couldn't find anything for the torsion so far.
   
   These are the dimensions of the VTS torsion bar in case you need them:
   
   Overall length 96.5 cm
   Diameter 19mm
   Spines diameter.1 22.5mm
   Spines diameter.2 (2x black tape side) 24mm
   
   Found this on another forum but unaware if they would fit:
   
   306 dturbo - TB 19mm
   306 hdi meridian - TB 19mm
   306 HDi Dturbo - TB 20mm ARB 24mm
   GTI6 - TB 20mm ARB 24mm
   306 estate - TB 20mm ARB 21mm (ARB not conclusive)
   306 estate 2001> - TB 21mm ARB 20mm
   Xsara VTS Late Phase 2 - TB 21mm ARB 23mm
   Xsara VTS Late Phase 1 & Early 2 - TB 21mm ARB 24mm
   ZX Volcane - 20mm TB 22mm ARB
   ZX 16v - 21mm TB 24mm ARB
   
   Thanks for the help.

   306 are too long if i remember correctly, meaning zx and xsara are also too long
   
   Berlingo van didnt fit but i cant remember the reason why. I think the only option is after market
