A torsion bar lift kit will normally cause the vehicle to write a little rougher. The vehicle suspension will not absorb bumps as well, as it did.
there is not one a torsion bar suspension is a cheap lift. i have one on my truck and i am currently looking into a suspension lift for mine. i suggest you do the same.
You must crank the bolts on the torsion bar clockwise to lift the vehicle
you will get about 1.5-2 inches of lift
The Torsion bar is a suspension component. It essentially "twists" ever so slightly to adjust ride height. This is adjusted by a special tool specific to the manufacturer.
Good info about raising front end by adjusting torsion bars.www.duramaxforum.com/forum/04-5-05-lly-performance-parts-discussion/4491-torsion-bar-adjustment.html
Yes you can Adjust the torsion bar to raise it. I did this on my 1 ton Chevy to raise the front end. I had an alignment right after and it has worked great ever since.
You remove the metal retaining clips on the back side of the frame / cross member that stop the torsion bar from sliding out. Figure out a way to clamp something to the torsion bar and smack it with a hammer driving the torsion bar towards the rear of the car. PS they do sell tools made to clamp on to the torsion bar. I would also suggest having the wheels off the ground and hanging. Also loosen the nut that adjust the ride height.
The 1st generation Nissan Pathfinder, 1987 - 1995 had a torsion bar suspension on the front end of the vehicle. There is a driver's side and passenger's side torsion bar and they are not interchangeable. 1996 - 2009 models do not use a torsion bar.
You need a torsion key.. most mechanics can twist the bar for cheap
A torsion bar is used in an auto suspension. A torsion bar suspension, also known as a torsion spring suspension or torsion beam suspension, is a general term for any vehicle suspension that uses a torsion bar as its main weight bearing spring. One end of a long metal bar is attached firmly to the vehicle chassis; the opposite end terminates in a lever, the torsion key, mounted perpendicular to the bar, that is attached to a suspension arm, a spindle, or the axle. Vertical motion of the wheel causes the bar to twist around its axis and is resisted by the bar's torsion resistance. The effective spring rate of the bar is determined by its length, cross section, shape, material, and manufacturing process.
Easier than you think, no special tools required
the torsion bar is actually a rod which is twisted when load is applied on opposite direction like couple
