Raising front end or lowering rear end
 

Do any of ya'll have any good tips on raising the front end or lowering the rear to level the H3 out. I have read some things about tightening the torsion bars and did that on my last 2 trucks which were Z-71s. Doesn't this cause problems with the front end? What suggestions do you all have or experiences you have had. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Raise the front end by adjusting the torsion bars. I think over time the ball joints wear out faster. Thats the good thing about factory warranty!! I dont think anyone on here has lowered the rear end.

If I remember correctly, will I need to get the frotn end aligned after I do that? Also, how many turns should I go on either side? I have also seen to jack the front end up when I do it. Is that true? Thanks for the help.

Adam, do a search for "torsion bars", you will get more information than you want. It's not rocket science. If you're asking for opinions you might get a different one with every new post. Some have 1 turn, some have 8.

Good luck.

Lift the front tires off the ground. I have mine turned about 4 times. I would recommend getting it alighned after. I didnt alighn mine and I have about 24K miles. My front tires are slightly wearing different then my rears.
