Re: I need to raise the front end of a Dodge 330




You can also measure from the bolt head to the anchor before and during the adjustment procedure...just to keep track of the original settings and the new setting.

No need to, just slide underneath with a ratchet and 3/4" socket and have at it. Usually after adjusting a bit I come up and bounce the front end a couple of times by hand and wait for it to settle and then see where you are at.

Also, I assume you jack the car up in the air and turn them, correct?

I put slicks on the rear of my Dodge and it looks too high in the rear.

I started looking at other cars with slicks and I noticed my front end is a lot lower than most "Super Stocks" and clones of them.

I think the guy that built the car has the torsion bars cranked way down because the car is very low.

I have not researched it yet on how to raise the front.

Any tips or tricks and do you guys think that will cure my stance?

Picture of it with slicks are here:
