no, we do not have torsion bars, those are on previous models, by cranking on the bars, you can get about an inch to an inch and a half of front lift.

RE: Adjusting torsion bars?
which is too bad because it would stiffen the front end a little

Ya, that's what I was figuring with the new front end suspension.
Oh well.

Torsion bars will also only on 4x4 models, 2wd had the coil-over suspension. One thing I wish the older 4x4 had....mmmm coil-overs.....

Twiztid, I just want to clarify. The gen2 had a coil system, yes; however, not coilover. A coilover system allows for adjustable suspension height, where a coil simply sits around a shock, inside the control arms. I just wanted to make sure people weren't getting confused.

Hmm, did not know that. I never looked at my 2wd that much, kept it pretty much stock.
