Front end lowering procedure

[skijaker]

I know this has been addressed in the past but I need some particulars. My front end sticks up about 11/16" on the driver side front compared to the back and the other side is 1/4" high on the front compared to the back. I knew it looked high but did not know they were that off from left to right.

In order to lower the front end, I realize the torsion screw needs to be adjusted however I can't get mine to budge. I obviously do not want to strip it out but do I need to jack up the car to take the pressure off? Should I remove the wheels? or should I just lower it with the car setting on level ground? My manual didn't specify.

Thanks in advance guys!

look for a 12mm torsion bar bolt and loose it. This reduce the height. If you want t rise just tight it. If after you loose the bolt and you wanna to lower mor your car, remove the big 10mm wide washer between the front strut and the chassis.

good luck

FYI, the front T-bar adjuster bolt is 11mm. Just get a 1/2 drive ratchet with a deep 11mm socket (can be done on the ground, with the wheels in place). They are generally a bit stiff to turn, which is normal. You might want to get a closer look first, just to make sure the threads aren't compromised, or severely rusted/corroded.

That is what I needed to know. They do not appear rusty but I will keep an eye them. You are correct on the 11mm bolt....Thanks for the input guys.
