I've pulled my keys three times now and without the special $140.00 tool and bending the crap out of two C-clamps. This method puts me at ease and makes the chore a bit safer I believe. In a jamb I sacrificed a bottle jack. The screw jack is not only cut to a point but at a sort of 45 deg. angle to allow more room to adjust nut/remove. Works good.

Not having had to mess with my torsions or keys as of yet...I can only assume this is a good tip.
Thx.
I will have to change my 96 torsions to the new shorter ones soon tho(yes..it's a 96, apparently a few older longer bars slipped thru in this model yr)

Making a note of this. Need to grab a bottle jack out of the JY.
