Please, in another thread, explain how the amount of turns the torsion bar has would have anything to do with wear on the ball joints.  |
Dude, relax. It's just a forum.
Cranking the torsion bars creates extra tension on the A-arms, pushing them (and therefore the wheels) down and changing the angle on the CV joints. The CV and ball joints have to withstand the extra force at an out-of-spec angle. This creates extra stress on the joints, especially when steering and flexing off-road. This can cause them to fail early, with creaking and popping noises while steering or going over bumps.
Other issues could cause these sounds, but this is one thing to rule out.
