Since no one that I know of has posted pics of the actual torsion bar Job getting done I figured it would be a nice post to have.

TBAR INSTRUCTIONS.

The front bar adjustments are located roughly under the divider between the front and rear doors--it is a bolt that is 1 1/16th inch. Measure from ground to bottom of fender BEFORE turning, then jack it up, turn CLOCKWISE the number of turns you want, then set down--remeasure.
***NOTE*** YOU MUST THEN GET IT ALIGNED.

I would use at leas a 21" 3 Ton Jack a bit overkill on the tonage but you need the height. Also no standard socket set has the 1 1/16 Socket so go to Sears and spend $10.69 on the socket. I would buy the DEEP socket as well for you will need the leverage. Make sure you have a breaker bar handy, the first two turns are pretty easy but the last 1/2 a turn is a bear. Make sure you have the truck tires off the ground in the front during the TBAr nut turn or it is next to impossible to turn the bolt.

This was a very easy Job. We did three trucks in less than 1 hour. The funny thing is in each truck the passenger side was nearly 1 inch lower (Stock Height) SO much for Hummer Engineering ;-) But than again thats what makes them Hummers..... Good Luck :0

Make sure you mark the bolts with a sharpie and turn CLOCKWISE.
