will get pics of it raised soon, but none just yet. Its pretty much level with the front now.

The torsions bars seem fine..... they cant really go wrong

they are likely just slightly wrong with regards to matching the splines etc

How did you do the axle? No reason why you cant get them to sit exactly even.
Did you slide the arms rite off or did u remove torsion bars to adjust?

just did it the spline way first to raise it by 1 spline on both sides (30-35mm)

So.... the setup must be squewed.... hence why i'll need to removce both bars... and refit correctly with the radius arm as the same height

doing it by splines is not accurate

measure it properly and it will be spot on
