Just put new leaf springs in the rear - rebent with an added leaf. Probably picked up 3-4" of lift and I'm probably topping out my shocks too

I need to crank the T-bars a little to level it out and I need some help with that. I see the 22mm adjusting nut and the jamnut above it, but once I get the apparatus free, which way do I turn the adjuster to raise the ride height on the front? Also, I have heard a 1 1/2" increase is the most the stock t-bars should be subjected to, but how many turns of the adjuster bolt does this translate into?

Thanks!

Righty tighty will raise the front, Lefty loosey will lower it. Number of turns depends on how much fatique the bars have. It is really a trial & error process. Don't forget to jack it up to do it & you will need to drive around the block to seat them t ofind out haw much lift you really have

You may want to get the bolts from your dealer before attempting to adjust them. Seems to be about 50/50 that you break one or both. Also, plenty of soaking in PB Blaster...

okay, thanks for the info. I guess I judged incorrectly when I started cranking lefty loosey on them to bring it up heh heh

So, just to ballpark, you think 8 full turns will bring it up an inch?
