Question torsion bar sagging?

How much can I expect the torsion bar to have sagged on an 03? I have no experience with torsion bars. Do they usually sag a bit, or remain fairly stable? I'm just trying to learn as much as I can on these rigs

I have no idea. Maybe someone with more experience will chime in on this. I would not think much at all from what I see underneath the H2

I have a 03 h2 and i noticed that the drivers side is a little lower than the pass side , i adjusted the levers and you can see the difference on the bolt lenght.
this summer i am going to install the arms that give you more adjustment
to keep the front level.mike

You can adjust the front height with the jack bolt on the torsion bar. It's a pretty easy job. Just break the jam nut loose and crank her up. Make sure you go the same amount per side though. And you will need to have the alignment checked when finished. The bars are probably set like that from the factory, Chevy's with this style suspension are usually about two inches lower in the front versus the rear.

I already have a set of 3" torsion keys in my Garage I will install them when I get around to it...maybe dial it in to around 2 - 2.5" lift, just the be kind to the ball joints. Thanks for the replies, cheers, Indy.
