Post -06 torsion bars,keys,bolts or something else different than -03 ?

2003 Hummer H2 have different torsion key adjusting bolt height (approx 4 turns more driver side one) and 2006 H2 torsion key adjusting bolts are perfectly level . I know its not uncommon to have different heights either side but why is it that 2006 is perfectly level...

Both trucks are level outside...

I have a 2004 and I have had the same issue. not sure if it is a weak or worn out torsion bar but the Driver side needs to be turned more than the passenger side.

I and others have experienced just the opposite: Passenger side turned in more... Read this thread I started <HERE>.

With stock keys how far would you crank torsion key bolts- I would like have most comfortable ride

Rancho installation manual says: "Verify that the front spindle to fender height is 28.5" and that both sides are equal..."






My truck is -03 with rancho 4" lift, 9000xl shocks and RCX system to control shocks from cabin.

You've already lifted your ride 4", so assuming your ride is level side to side there's really no point in changing your torsion bar adjustment. Also changing the adjustment too much can require a wheel re-alignment.

I have to do a wheel re-alignment anyway ... My point was to get truck level Front - Rear but it seems to affect ride comfort too much .

I just measured front is both sides 30.5" and rear 34" both sides.

I would like to know how much other H2?s have so please post yours.

front spindle height ?
