I'm new how do I crank the T-bars?

First you adjust the sensor to give the correct height on both sides.
2
Then you do the neutral-pressure test that you have seen in another thread, and crank up the T-bars to achieve the correct pressure. (That's what the pressure test is for...)

If that doesn't work out, I would say you have a problem in the rear. (Maybe inspect the coil springs before you start)
 
Thanks Uhu. Yes, I did read that other post. Can you explain what the neutral-pressure test is for? Is this to make sure that the suspension load is properly distributed between the T-bars and the AHC?

Are there any aftermarket testers that can be used to read this pressure electronically? I know the Lexus tester does this (as per FSM). That would save an oily mess when removing/re-installing the drain plugs.

Yes.

I don't know of such a device, but I would like to have one myself. Also, I wonder whether there would be any difference between Euro & US for such a tester. Thinking about OBD, - used in US only, isn't it? I hope someone can fill in on this matter.

Otherwise, the "manual" method isn't that messy, using a thin tube into a bottle for draining / letting out the pressure. You might spill a drop or two when installing the adapter for the LSPV gauge.
