Love the truck it’s looking very sharp, 👌👌
As for adjusting the front torsion bars it’s WAY better to re-index them as opposed to just winding them down, if you dot punch or paint mark the bars where they go into the splined cups on the front, release the tension, then remove the bars from the splines, move them round two or three splines, depending on how low you go. then re tension the bars,
This way you end up with the bars at normal tension( i.e way better ride quality) you are just moving the suspension arm in relation to the torsion bar,
If you just wind the bars down you are releasing the tension in the bar and thus you will get a crappy ride quality 😉

Mate here in south africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦that leaf pack looks just about standard as we have them on our LWB double cab...👍👍👍on another note the reason why the location pin or bolt (if you wants to call it that) is sleeved is to avoid wear and tear on its shaft...chances are that full threaded bolt may wear its self and become weaker...ask me how we know 🙄🙄🙄 but lets see how it works out....you tutorial is made so easy...Good on you mate👍👍👍

My 84 Nissan Datsun has been lowered and I honestly like the way it sits. For me it's at the correct ride height. I definitely want to get a different set of wheels for my truck.

[lyndellfazekas]

Looks much better at that height. Great job! Its such a transformation 😎

[mannyjuta]

Very nice. I have a 1988 B2200 extra cab. I’m in the process of lowering it. What size and type of bolts did you use to hold the leaf springs?
Thank you

[thedreamhouseprojects]

I really enjoyed watching your video, very much informative, explained the process slowly and clearly. I learned a lot from it, thank you!

[flycorvus]

Keep pimpin' ! ;-)
Great project, I envy you.
My '02 Focus's just got another two years license.

[ndumisodube]

I love it.plus l have the same car watched all you budget build video

[nnigzbk]

Hey you need to change the bump stop at the back put smaller ones

[andrewh]

Interesting video, I don't know anything about leaf spring suspension. It does look better at the new height.

[Laci_G]

Hali. Pont felnéztem youtube-ra, hátha van valami új videó, akkor csippant is a telefon hogy új videót tettél fel. Mondom ez ám az időzítés😁
Ismét egy nagyon jó és minőségi tartalmat kaptunk. Köszönöm☺️
Brutál jól néz ki így a verda hogy le van ültetve, naa igen az utazási komfort az egy más kérdés😅 Kíváncsian várom a következő videót róla🙂

Start by replacing your rear shocks. They are absolutely toast.

[ManuelGutierrez-beci]

If you do a flip on the front it will lower it not raise it. It's riding on the bump stops that's why it's a ruff ride. It actually sits a little bit lower so just cut the bump stops and then look at where it sits before doing anything else suspension wise to it.

[reifonseca]

Them blocks are going to destroy the rear end they supposed to have a angle cut over 3 inches

[Wafflecombo]

Hey man do you know what type of bolts you got like the metric and pitch size?

[tazymonster]

Need to shave the bump stops all around

[tattookaleo]

I would suggest not adjusting torsion bars with the suspension loaded. Jack it up, adjust, lower and check. Repeat as needed.

That looks way better being more down.. Never seen lower blocks so big before lol. Was wondering if it's riding the bump stops, if you cut them down the back might sink more? My courier 4x4 has small bump stops, maybe for the extra travel so if you're at a wrecker check them out. 👍
