Torsion bar
Okay in my previous post I replaced my front lls shocks with rancho's 9000. Anyway after about a month or so it dropped about an inch to almost 2 inches. So I decided today instead of bringing it back to shop to replace/fix the shocks I'd try and adjust the torsion. My question is did I do it too much? If im reading the caliper correctly it said 28mm of space for adjustment. Anyway I adjusted it and left 15mm. My truck raised an inch or so. It now reads 39+ inches from the ground to my fender versus the 38+ inches it was before. Did I do too much? Or can I adjust it more? I want a clerance of 40 inches in front. Is that to much to ask for 
And if I get that 40 inches and I replace the shocks I'll get 42 inches woohoo
Am I straining something?
Lama are you there? Help please.

Everything I've read and heard leads me to believe about an inch (three or so full revolutions of the bolt) is all you want to stretch out of the torsion bar adjustment. That's how much I did to mine and it now sits fairly level. I'm not sure how many inches from the ground to the fender, but I do know my front has a bit more visible well area than the rear.

I'm not too sure how many "full revolutions" I did. It did however only go up an inch. All I know is it had 28mm of adjustment left on the bolt from stock and now only has 15mm.
Buzzard if you have a caliper and a min can you please measure the bolt?
