hi y''all.
i had my truck sagged to the right. then we got into an accident, fortunately, same right side, and i told them that it sagged after accident. when repairs were done, the shop guy mentioned something about adjusting the torsion bar to fix that issue.

now, i have noticed that my left, driver side is sagged some, probabaly as i drive alone and 275lbs are always down on that front left end. so, is it true that i can raise the vehicle by adjusting torsion bar? before i get into it.
2000 silverado, lt, z71 4wd, 1500.

to a degree.. although id first find out what caused the sagging, if it was just the tprsion bar slipping, then yes re adjusting it will solve the issue. it something else got damaged or broke, then your only putting a bandaid over the issue

new shocks around 4 mths ago. was quite level after that. it's not much of a sag, every car i know of, that is driven with mostly driver only, eventually sags towards the driver front side. i leveled mine back with counterbalast. will check that torsion bar next weekend, wify's 50's b-day this one.
