OK what im gonna do is set my torsions where i want them. measure the space between where the bolt screws into and the head of the bolt. the im gonna compile washers to match that distance. once i install the washers i will always be able to return to my same height and keep my perfect alignment.

the question is...the driver side of my truck is about a 1/2" lower than the passenger side. i know the motor torques to the right so i figured this might be there to compensate. so of you all that race have u noticed any difference in launches by maybe letting you driver side down a little further than ur pass. side?

i was just wondering how much difference in the ride height of each side i should set my truck at. when i measure the distance i park the truck level and measure up from the ground centing my tape with the wheel and measuring to the center of the fender flare

Rayan.... when you do race, how much "twist" do you want? I go by frame, joint under door @ roughly 9" on normal with 265's.... a little lower for the other stuff. ;)

but as far as each side how much difference in height do you have?

i guess what im wanting to acheive is when i launch for the truck to distribute the weight equally on the tires.
