Rasing the Rear Torsion Bar

[IANMM]

ok i have got a little problem im trying to raise the rear torsion bar as its sitting too low but i have tryed 4 times to do it now and its still dragging on the rear tyres i have put new GAZ coil overs and rear adj dampers but the one side seems to sit too low...i have had both rear torsion bars out measured the heights re attached everything then when it settles it drags again....its really doing my head in....the rear dampers are brand new and showing no leaks so im at a loss......any suggestions are greatly appreciated....i have got sparky looking at it tomorrow but would love to get it straight in my head beforehand...


thanks

Ian

When you reinsert the bars are you leaving any weight on the beam? :)

[IANMM]

yes i have i put a bolt to equally space it on the rear beam so it pushed the hubs down....

it seems like there dropping afterwards...

maybe the rear shocks are knacked...??

any ideas?

New shocks are cheap enough fella, bang some on.

its been a while since i looked at a gtt,,,but...which torsion bars are you adjusting? dont forget the gtt has two pairs?

[IANMM]

yeah it was the rear shocks i took the new GAZ ones out and put my old ones back in and its all good now...

Think GAZ has given me the wrong ones as there is alot more travel on them compared to the old ones plus adjusting the GAZ ones seems to have no effect on them..???

anyways will contact GAZ on Monday

Big Thanks to sparkie for his help on the phone and to Ryan P for poping down the unit and casting his eyes over it
