i'm going tomorrow morning for inspection and alignment so i figured tonight would be the best time to lower the front end by adjusting the torsion bolts. After lowering i got all four sides of the truck to sit at 32.5 inches high. that is measuring fromt the ground up to the middle of the wheel well at it's lowest point in the center if that makes sense. my question is on the passenger side the torsion bolt came all the way out to make it even with the other side and the driver side bolt looks to be only about half way out. is this ok? normal? also does my height sound about right compared to all the other lowered X's? keep in mind the back end is stock no lowering blocks or anything. thanks.
 






BTW, I know this subject has been beat to death. I"m very sorry for bringing it up again. I just want to make sure I have good correct knowledge before going and getting my alignment done tomorrow morning. I want to make sure it is going to be o.k. to drive everyday with only one torsion bolt in on my driver side and none on my passenger side. Also , if anyone is wondering, i already have Edelbrock shocks for stock height explorer. i'm sure they'll work fine even though now my front end is lowered right?

One more thing,...i've done several searches and do believe that this question has not been asked before. sorry if it has but I need help quick
 






Holty, having one T bolt out and one still half way in should be okay. I drove around like that for awhile and had no probs. Your stock eddies will do fine also.
