how can you tell..if torsion bar is correctly installed or not? (1 Viewer)

i have an ome torsion bar intalled few months ago by one of the local mechanics.. if it was installed correctly, what's the most lift i could get and still have the minimum down travel of 60 mm? how can i tell if it was installed incorrectly?

Raising the height by tightening up the torsion bar will not reduce or restrict down travel. It WILL increase the force needed to push the vehicle down. If you have AHC, changing the torsion bar adjustment and height sensor adjustment to raise the height will likely cause a very harsh ride over small bumps etc and with light/no loads. Pressure in the accumulators will need to be reduced to balance with the increased torsion bar loading.

LC = no AHC
