Torsion bar lift vs droop is it 1:1

[ScubaJon]

For each 1" of lift do you lose 1" of droop ? Or does it end up being some complex calculation

Yes, it really is that basic. Just some simple math, if you have 6" of wheel travel and the ride-height is adjusted so that you have 2" of compression and 4" of droop, and then you tighten the torsion bar adjusters to raise the ride-heigh 1", now you have 3" and 3". Anything less than 2" of droop and the ride comfort is going to suffer as the front end dives down and up with each bump in the road.

How much wheel travel does the front of a 100 have?
