Default Re: Torsion Bar Adjustment on an Alpha
Did on an 08 Alpha recently. Use a floor jack to bring up the front end. I centered the jack at the back of the skidplate and raised both front wheels off the ground. I started with 3 cranks per side. I ended up around 4 1/2 and 5 I think. One side was off a little.

I ended up at 23 3/4 from center of axle to bottom lip of fender. I also added the Cognito shocks for now on fronts only.

I drove the truck for about 200 miles ans was going to get the FE alignment done. I had quite a bit of front end sway so I lowered to just under 23". This is where I had my 06 H3 set as well.

I'm going to get the FE alignment done this week to wrap that project up.
