Re: Dog bone looking thing

I think we need clarification on what you mean by "Thus allowing me to take a lower a bit out of the torsion bars bolt". If you put a spacer in between the upper control arm mount and the frame that will help your alignment. I have never heard of anyone doing it on the lower control arm. It does not sound like a good idea. I would think that would raise truck a little and mess up the suspension geometry. It seams like it would also put your lower control arms to close to the ground.

Usually when you lower with torsion bars the bottom of the tires start to stick out further than the top. I think this is called camber. In order to correct this people usually put shims in between the upper control arm and the frame.
