Just installed a custom made grill guard on my truck which dropped the front end 1/2 inch from stock. Decided to raise it back up with the torsion bars. Passenger side took only one turn but on the driver side i'm up 3 turns already and still quite not enough. Could there be a problem or is that normal?Thanks:help:

Did you check for level before installing the guard? It can be off quite a bit from the factory.

Yes i checked the measurements before installing and the drivers side was 1/4 inch lower than the pass. Is that normal or should they be the same.

Usually, the driver's side sets 1/4" to 1" lower than the passenger side.

Thats exactly why it sits uneven. Alot of GM trucks come factory with one side sitting lower than the other. Very common, don't worry.

If they are off anyway can we level them out without throwing the camber way off? They look so stupid draggn' the front arround like that.-:t
