Can you tighten the torsion bars for increased ground clearance?

[Jigga]

I was wondering if anybody knows about or has tightened the torsion bars to lift it up. I know you can tighten them up but i wanted to know if that caused damage to the vehicle over time, or if you got it re-aligned they would be fine.

Also, i'm looking into adding air shocks to the front of my H2 and trying to find a way to connect it the the air compressor so when i engage height control, both the front and the back lift up. I was wondering if anyone had thought about or done any of this.

Thanks,

The H2 has a 3/4 HD front suspension. Yes, you can crank up the torsion bars to a point. Too far and the ride, CV joints and alignment will be affected. You can find lots of info about torsion bars on the PU Truck Forum pu site

Still waiting to hear from Brooklyn about those quick release torsion bars.
