Cranking the torsion bars?
#2
torsion bars are used instead of leaf or coil springs. They can be adjusted (cranked) up or down. This changes the ride hieght of the front end of your truck. Also the harshness of the ride from my experience.
This is usually done to raise the truck up to fit bigger tires.

It's a good way to gain an inch or two on 2nd gen 4Runners. Beyond that, you run into CV joint issues (if you don't have manually locking hubs). You will sacrifice a little ride quality but not much at that height. YMMV.
