Default Re: THE OFFICIAL HUMMER AND BABE PICTURE THREAD! (no nudity please)

I'm new to the lifted thing, so I asked how I can tell if they are cranked in another thread and I got this response:
"look under the crossmemember towards the middle of the vehicle, you will see where the torsion bar connects from the lower A arm up front to the torrsion key in the crossmember, there will be a bolt threading into a steel shank that goes against the torrsion key. If the bolt is threaded all the way in (or close to all the way), you know they are cranked."
So I just looked and there is over an inch of threads showing still, so I guess they are not. It definitely doesn't have the 'nose down' stance though, it sits level, like the front has been raised. Could an aftermarket torsion key be in there? And from just looking at the angle of my tie rod, it doesn't seem as steep of an angle as it looks in that picture. Funny angle maybe...
