So I did some searching and did not really find what I was looking for.
I got a 98 ranger 4x4 extended cab and I am having an issue with the torsion bars. The drivers side is cranked almost all the way up and the passenger side is barrley even cranked at all.
The vehicle is level but I can tell that the drivers side is way stiffer. I was looking at it and it seems that the drivers side bar was put in with the ajustment part (not sure of propper name) was put in at more of an upward angle than the passenger side.
I am not sure if this could be the problem or if I am just a complete tard on the situation but any help would be gratly appreciated.
 
It is normal. Your fuel tank is on the driver side, and if there is only going to be one person in the truck while its going down the road, that person will be on the drivers side (hopefully). No worries, and welcome to TRS!
 
Mine were the exact same way.

Then I got rid of them.
 
All t-bar rangers are like that. The passenger side bolt shows more threads than the drivers side.
 
Yup....aka "the ranga lean" yo.

You're maxed out on the driversside, I'd lean towards there being some worn out Tbar. Time for a swap. My B bars were sagged like a mother at only 70k. In went brand new #1's. Now with a ton of miles on my #1's, they too are pretty saggy.....so....coil-over swap time for me!!
 
Thanks guys I appreciate it. Live and Learn.
