04 Hemi QC 4x4 Torsion Bar Adjusters
So, I raised the front of the truck up via the torsion bars and here is what I have:
I have 39” in the front on both sides, but here is an oddness…..
In the back, one side is 39-1/2” and one is 40”…..the adjustments wouln’t affect the back height,…..would they? I never thought to measure the back before hand, so now I may really have it screwed up.
Should I run the adjuster bolts all the way in and then back them out evenly or what. I started with 5 full turns on each side, but now I fear in trying to even things out I have it screwed up.
HELP!

Assuming you got it aligned, cause the camber will be noticably off with a 5 turn crank, there's no reason the front end, when evenly raised to cause the .5 difference at the rear, unless it was there to begin with.
Best way to measure height is from the center of the wheel to the wheel opening. Sounds like you are measuring from the ground.
I've heard mentioning of turning the passenger side an extra 1/2 to 3/4's of a turn to compensate for the grade in most road surfaces. Seems odd to me though as you would have the truck not level on all 4 corners if you did that...
