Default T-bar adjustment pics

Okay, after doing a lot of search I found out how to level the front by t-bar adjustment. What I missed and did not found was a pic of the underneath H3 to see where to turn the t-bars. For all of you with the same problem is here a pic of the torsionbar and bolt.



I took the pic from the front to the back of the truck. The srew to turn is that one located in the crossmember about a hand wide on the right side of the torsion bar.



Here a before pic...



... and the after pic.



I did four turns and received a lift of 1.5 inch. You can get an impression if you compare the truck to my toolbox in front of it.

Hope that helps someone.

Looks good, it's an easy and noticable mod. Make sure to get an alignment.

Looking very most really GOOD![sm=smiley20.gif] Amazing how much rake the factory sets the 3 at, and how much better they look after some T Bar turns.

Excuse the dumb question, it might be self-explanitory if I was under the H3 but.....do you tighten the screw or loosen it to gain the 1.5 inch height ?

Looks great! I still need to crawl under mine and give it a little twist so that I can atleast level the front with the rear.
