does any one know how to get say an inch of lift from cranking the torsion bars on a 2001 durango 4x4 4.7l? thanks or is there some magical easy way to get some lift?

 

8 full revs on the T-Bars for 2" of lift so if you are going for 1" that would be 4 turns.

 

Research in here under T/S lift.

ok thank you!!!

 

I have a question where are the torsion bars located on the durango i cannot find them maybe im confuzing them with something but idk where they are any help?

 

Get on the ground, look at your front a-arms, follow the big rods back under, at the end you'll find the adjuster bolt.. On that note, adjusting the torsion bars are best done with the front suspension unloaded (Front tires off the ground fully extended). Also any adjustments made wont show correct height till you ride it down the road and cycle the suspension some.

 

I have always heard to turn the tbars with the wheels on the ground. Dunno.

Also note, you always finish turning UP. Go down past the desired height and raise it back up a quarter or half a turn to set the position.

You want the load off it!

You turn it to get your height then drive it just as 408 indicated. Measure with a measuring tape from the ground to the fender to ensure the height you want.

Remember to get a 4 wheel alignment after the set point because you will be out of camber after the final set point.

 

oh ok thanks. uhh one quicky its only for the front. so i would either get a leveling kit for the rear or add block or w.e yea

 

No add a block since the rears are sua (springs under axle), but since we talked about lifting on the other post you could just go a full 8 turns and use belltech 6400 rear shackles or eqiv and be even at 1.75"/2"
