Torsion Bars

[ranger1999xlt]

Hello! I have a question about my torsion bars. I have been ****ing with them lately (Mistake), and I have decided on putting them back to stock, but I don't know where they are suposed to be stock. It is lower than stock right now and I don't know how to tell when I have it back to normal. Will it hurt them to be lower than stock. I just don't want the torsion bar bolts to come out either. Thanks.

When i cranked t bars on newer rangers, they had about 3 inches of downtravel in it, after a 1 1/2 inch crank, there was 1 1/2 inches of down travel. So measuer and then jack up the truck to find out how much u are over stock, then adjust it.
I would measuere the fender to hub but i only have my 89 ranger at the house now

Don't know if it will hurt them to be lower but you will have less wheel travel and that could cause the suspension to bottom out if you hit something hard. I just measured the center of the wheel to the bottom of the fender on my 05 and its roughly 20 inches. Hope that helps.
