I pulled the torsion bars out of my 68 Charger in order to replace the LCA bushings. Before I backed off the tension on the bars, I measured how far the adjusting bolts was sticking out from the nuts in the LCA. I figured that when I reinstalled the bars I could run the adjusting bolt back to the same setting in order to get close to the same ride height that I had before.
When I set the adjusting bolts back to where they were prior to the removal, the front end was much lower that before. I had to really crank the bolts in to get the ride height back. The adjusting bolt heads are now even with the bottom of the LCA.
I made sure that the bars went back in the same location that they came out from and as I recall, I had the LCAs all the way down when I reinstalled the bars.
Should I be concerned about this or is it really no big deal how much you have to crank the bolts in, as long as you can get your desired ride height?
