Known about it for a while and read up on it a few hours ago. Everyone says tightening will raise the front but mine seems like it is already tightened all the way. Help?

its a b*tch trying to crank up while its on the ground, try lifting it up off the front end and go from there

 

I figured that, I need help figuring out whether mine is cranked all the way already.

 

I know plenty of you guys have done this, how about some help?

 

Its hard to tell by those pics if they're all the way tightened, but I would say go ahead and grab a wrench and try! Here are some points to keep in mind...

A lot of people say to make sure you turn the bolts equally, but this assumes the bars have exactly the same spring constant (highly unlikely). The easiest way to make sure they are equal is work on it on a very flat surface and pick a point in the frame or suspension to measure from the ground up.

You will have to get a front end alignment whenever you make any adjustements to the suspension, so keep that in mind.

Pay close attention to the bar itself, you can overtighten them to the point where the bar will start to bend, and this is bad. If you see the bar start to bend back off until its straight.

Hope this helps!

 

Mine are only about 1/8 inch from all the way cranked, meaning the adjustment bolt head almost makes the torsion key arm touch the frame. I have 265-75R16's that clear under heavy turns. Hope this helps.

 

The bolt head is touching the surface of the hole it is going through. Is this all the way? It doesn't seem like it should be all the way because the front of my truck is a lot lower than the back.

 

The top of the front wheel well is 35 1/2" off the ground and the rear is 37 1/2".

 

The hole that the bolt head is touching is the arm of the key, is the top of the key touching the body/frame?

 

No it's not.
