I want to bring the front of my truck up a bit so it doesnt have the stinkbug stance. Ive heard a lot of people say I can just give my torsion bars 5-6 turns and that should level her out. I used to hear from people back east that doing that will in turn cause your ball joints to wear quickly and improperly. Is there any truth to this? How much can I or should I crank them? 4 turns, 5 turns? Also, is a turn a full 360 degrees or just 180?:confused:
