I wouldn’t mess with that either. And I agree, it looks more like the LCA’s, but looking closer, I think you see abnormal wear on both. I’m kinda baffled as to how it could even happen.

Yes, side specific, but not dimensionally different sizes.Are you sure you haven't misplaced right and left torsion bars? Not sure if it applies to gmt400s, but usually torsion bars have a specific side... If you swapped them, maybe that could be your issue.
I'm wondering if the bars are indigenous to the truck. A lot can happen in 20+ years. Aftermarket replacements that didn't fit quite right etc. I would slide them back out and look closee at the wear on both pieces.I wouldn’t mess with that either.

Maybe his wiped out control arm bushings created for him, the same problem you're seeing. Letting everything walk around and get wallowed out.I do need lower control arm bushings
I mess with a lot of mopars. You might have tore the hex out of the control arm, or the t-bar fractured, or the crossmember that anchors the t-bar ripped loose from the unibody. I put P.S.T 1.03 bars in my Duster, and after wire brushing the hexes out and adding a touch of grease they were a tight fit. I've also seen Mopar one's break, slant 6 bars when cranked.I remember years ago, I had my 74 Plymouth Satellite jacked up, can’t remember what I was doing, when I heard a BANG that was so loud, I literally thought someone had fired a gun near my ears. I didn’t realize until I lowered the car, and one side was nearly touching the ground what had happened. Torsion bar broke!
Yeah, I wasn’t even messing with it, it just exploded!I mess with a lot of mopars.
