Default Torsion Bolt - Which Way?
Hi all. thanks for all the great information.

I'm new to the forum, but have read several posts on the torsion lift - I have a 2003 I want to lift 1.5 inches.

My question is, nowhere did I read which way your crank the bolt? is it the same as normal - right turning raises / left turning lowers it?

Thanks
Steve

Tightening increases tension on the bar, thus raising the front end.

Right, so I am turning the bolt to the right (both of them clockwise)?
