LN130 Weird Torsion Bar Adjustment

Post by JimmyT »

Hi All, I have only posted once or twice about a year ago but i do think this is a great forum with awesome information.

So today i did up a new set of front bearings, rotors,pads and brake caliper rebuild ect.

While i was under having a look around i noticed the driver side torsion bar had about 75mm thread sticking out and the passenger side had approx 30mm sticking out

this is a bog standard LN130 Surf and i have not would them up or down

Does anybody have any idea whats going on here ?

My theory was that the drivers side torsion bar has gone bad and been cranked up to bring it back even

OR

The passenger side has has a different type of torsion bar that needed less adjustment.

I want to get this figured out so I can put on my lift kit and 31's

Thanks for any help or info

Cheers

James

well assuming your hilux is level id guess 1 side has sagged ...might be a good idea to get a 2nd handpair from a wrecker & replace them
