Default LIFTING A DAKOTA FRONT END

My 4x4 Dakota doesn't sit level. How do I raise the front end to be level with the back?

One quick way to help level it out would be to crank the torsion bars up a bit.

Will this affect the alignment or any other component?

Any time you lift or lower a vechile's ride form stock height the goemetry of the front end is going to change. It may not change drasticly but it will be affected to some extent. I don't think tightening the torsion bars will affect it to extreme.

How easy is to adjust the bars?
