u13turbo Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Hey guys, on my 91 terrano i done a 2" rear sping lift and wound torsions up, the torsions are even with back but are sitting on top bumpstops, im guessing its gonna be putting alot more strain on all the front end components? I have just had to put a new draglink and dont want to spend much more on these parts. How much should i low it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewebster Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Something sounds wrong here. How did you measure the front lift? You should follow the procedure in the manual to get it right. Maybe you actually wound it up more than 2"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to reindex them first, i dont think it would be more than 2" as it sits pretty even with the rear and them springs were meant to be 25mm lift(alot more due to sag from old springs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewebster Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 What do you mean by even though? I think the front is supposed to be lower than the back, so if you lift both by 2" then the front will still be lower... Anyway, sitting on bumpstops just sounds weird to me, but maybe I'm clueless. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry. There is upper and lower bumpstops, it is stitting on the upper bumpstops, ie it cannot go any higher, i will lower it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
