 Subject: T-Bar Maxed from factory??
IP: Logged
Message:
I finished my BL and ordered new 285/75/16s this week. I was going to level the front as the drivers side was 3/4 inch lower than passenger side. yes, checked tire tread and pressure on level ground. checked it several times but, The T-Bar only has about 3/8 inleft on the threads...does this mean the factory clocked the t-bar wrong or just cranked them up to clear the 265/70s that came on the truck? any Ideas.

How much thread you have means nothing really...if your bars are a little weaker than others, the factory would have needed to crank them farther to get spec.
Just crank it till its level or you run out of room...

OK here comes the goofy question. Got a 92 v8 ext cab, if the torison bars are maxed out, does that affect the drivability or will it cause any other premature wear on them?

Judge the height by the bump stops. Stay a little bit away from them or your ride will become very rough.

MetalHead,
Here's some excellent light reading on torsion bars.
Lots of good info here. It's a GM oriented site I came across when searching (unsuccessfully) for some heavy duty torsion bars for my Dakota.
