Default Torsion bar bolts and adjustment

My torsion bar bolts are bugging me. One sticks down much farther than the other. I think they are not indexed in the same place on either the lower control arm or the keys themselves. The ride high is the same of both sides. Does this look like I could move the torsion bar one notch to get the screws at the same length?

Mine are the same way. The tech said that if I adjusted them, it could throw off the alignment. If you want to mess with them, wait until you're ready for an alignment.

Yea, if your going to mess with them, make sure your on a completely level surface. It's actually hard finding someplace where concrete/pavement hasn't been channeled for water run-off.

If you look at how much more of the adjustment bolt is sticking down on one side. I think the issue is that they keys are not indexed in the same place on the keys and the lower control arms. Does anyone disagree with that?

Mine where the same and after I adjusted them the "popping"noise most people talk about dissapeared!! I don't know, alignment is still good.

You made an adjustment on the torsion bars? I think that could be the issue with my popping noise.
