Default Front suspension

I replaced all my front end suspension components lower control arm,upper, and shocks and my front end goes all way down was wondering if anyone had a problem like this before or can give me a fix.

My first thought was, "I'm a Lions fan, you're on your own!", but.... I suspect you didn't install the torsion bars correctly.

Agreed, only logical guess I can think of as well.

Turn the torsion bar adjuster clockwise to raise the vehicle. If it won't adjust enough, you likely will have to re-clock it one hex flat over to get in the right adj range. That would mean you may have clocked it wrong on the control arm end when you put that in.
