Hey, torsion lowering?

[dogboy]

Say guys i've trying to find out which way to crank the torsion to lower the front right side an inch. Last tuesday nite i told some of you guys that the passenger front is about an inch higher than the other side, and the rear passenger is about an inch lower than the other side. please let me know where in the search to look. i did a search titled " how to lower truck" with no luck!

Thanks rambo.

i thought it was a std thread bolt for the t bars. you do know you have to do it when the truck is at ride height on the ground right? i gotta check, cause you wont see it move very quickly keep turning, ittl go.

do you know if turn it clock wise or counter clock wise?

Loosen ( counter clock wise) the passenger torsion bar bolt. That should fix it up :D If it is to low after that loosen the drivers side torsion bar bolt. Now that the front of your truck is slammed add 3" blocks to the rear :D

Be sure to loosen the two nuts on top of the adjusting bolt. They are jammed against each other top prevent them moving and going out of adjustment. Once you have raised the front end level, hold the bottom nut while tightening the top one down on it to hold it.

 

Don't listen to icehouse.:D The 620 tended to be a little nose down so bring it up level with the rear.

my 521 has double nuts so if you just go under and turn the bolt head it does nothing. if it is like mine (i think you need 2 17 mm open ends)one is a lock nut one is the contact nut on the torsion bar. on the 521 5 turns is 1.5 inches.
