Whooaah ! My front end dropped!?

[Eric R <hoodoovoodooray@xxxxxxxxx>]

'62 Newport.  New steering and suspension.

When I removed the torsion bars I thought I marked them and put them
back into the lower control arms at the same location they came out.
Maybe not?

Today I put my wheels on and dropped the car down for the first time.
Front end is low.  I can wiggle the back end of the t-bars.  So I
tightened the adjusting bolt. The t-bars don't wiggle now, but the
front end didn't raise.

It feels like I might have bottomed out the t-bar adjusting bolts.  I
had to spin them a lot to get the t-bars snug.  I can still turn them
but there's quite a buit of pressure.  I don't want to strip them,
unless it's the pressure of the car that's making them hard to turn.

I have the t-bars with the adjusting bolt back by where they slide
out.

Do I have to take t-bars back out and turn them?  Which way?  If so,
what's the easisest way?  I'd hat to have to break the upper or lower
ball joints apart if I can just let the lower control sag or
something.

Or, fix how?

It does look really cool with the front end so low though. lol.

... I guess I'll go fiddle around with my antenna so I can crank the
AM oldies.

Thanks
