Did loosening my torsion bar fix my alirnment?

Ok heres the deal, I got an alignment on my 4runner about a month ago. Slowly but surely it got worse and worse and went back to the way it was before the alignment. I also noticed that my torsion bars were cranked to the max so I was gonna loosen them before I had big o take another look at my alignment. So I loosened it expecting my alignment to get even worse but it seems to be centered now. Should I still have it checked out or is it good to go?

I would have it checked. Tires and gas are expensive these days, and it only takes fractions of a degree to make a difference.

Wherever you got an alignment should guarantee the work for longer than a month. I'd try and take it back to them and make them fix it.

Take your torsion bars down a bit too - drop the front end at least 1/2" and you'll get some comfort up front.
