ok ok ok... i did the torsions. im going to post pics.. im a little confused.....

i did 10 turns passenger side, and 7 drivers. its still not even... before i did it my front was pretty low. like real low. less than an inch before the tires would hit the fender......

what the hell is going on....

its way higher than it was.. but i went out of my way to dive around and find a stock adventure series and park next to it....... it was higher off the ground than mine is with all those torsion twists!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wtf!!!!!! hood was taller, mirrors.... it was bigger all together.. stock!

ill post pics.. but what do you think is up...

i think mabye dealer tweaked them down cause i complained about the left was lower than the right side...

im so confused

the ride is actually better.... its smoother... its real weird...

i don't know that there's a standard height, each truck is going to be different. don't know about an H3, but i pull a 5k lb camper with the H2, got the tbars cranked pretty good, and it handles fine. just needs more ba!!s and a better cooling system.

I am thinking of doing this, so I thought I'd bump this one up.
