let me start by saying hello. i have been lurking on here for awhile and like it much better than clubxterra..have had my x for 5 years and am now wanting to mod it a little... i want to do a pml but dont exactly know how to tweak the torsion bars.. do i have to tweak the 2 nuts above the t-bars? because i cant find any other nuts to adjust.. i have lifted an 88 xj 6" and have built several boobers so i have mechanical abilities but i have never messed with a vehilcle with ifs.. might bl it as well(my jeep was a unibody) thanx in advance

Welcome to XOC!

Loosen the upper nut, hold a wrench on the lower nut, and impact the bolt tighter. Just a couple of turns at a time. Stop when you have 1/2"-3/4" between the upper joust and the upper control arm.

We'd like to see some pics of the "boobers" you've built!

Jeff!
