How to crank your Torsion Bars

You found the right bolts but to do it right I would:
1. Take a measurement from the center of the hub to the fender on each side. More than likely it isn't level so now you can make that adjustment.
2. Jack up the front end slightly to take some weight off to make it easier to turn.
3. Spray the bolt with penetrating oil and you will need a 18mm socket or wrench.
4. Mark your socket or bolt so you can count how many turns clockwise you make.
5. Let it down and remeasure and make the appropriate adjustments.
6. If you really crank them you will need to get the alignment checked other wise you should be okay, just watch for any unusual wear on your tires.
Pretty easy to do but if you crank them to much your ride will suffer.
