Adjusted Torsion Bars but...
I adjusted the torsion bars tonight and forgot to measure the stock height from the ground to the top of the wheel well. :idiot:
I turned the driver side 4 turns and got 37 3/8" and the pass side 3 turns and got a hair above 37 3/8".
It seems to look a little better, but I'm wondering just how much it actually raised up.
Anyone have a good guess?

Re: Adjusted Torsion Bars but...
I think the back from center of axle to bottom edge of fender is 24.25. I adusted mine in the front to that. It took 8 turns on mine. I have a winch and brush guard sitting up there. I think if you "search" you will find more on this.

right, I read your post on that in the other thread.. What I am asking is, is there and general idea as to what the stock height was before I turned them?
Seems like most are turning 2 to 2.5 turns and getting the desired look. I don't really want to do more turns than that without some long term testing.
It seems to have brought the front up just a bit, but that might just be my imagination.. lol

Re: Adjusted Torsion Bars but...
I can't remember what mine was before I turned them. But I do remember 2.5 turns increased the front 2 inches when I removed the jack. I measured it a day later after driving and it settled an inch. So with 2.5 turns I got one inch lift.
Also I do remember my drivers side being a tad higher than pass side ( before turning and after ). I figured it was to make up for the weight of a person when sitting in drivers seat?
