Help lowering '01 x-sport (tt) issues (1.25 inch drop with bolt almost out)

[schmity]

I just bought the truck and wanted to lower it to make it more stable and better looks, i put it on the rack and the shop i work at yesterday and started with the pass side, (1.25) inch higher than driver. I backed the bolt out all the way till the key hit the brace and i only got (1.25) inch drop. Given im happy its finally level but my understanding was with the bolt all the way adjusted it would have moderate to extreme change. 1" to 3". Please help its really bothersom, plus my wife wants me to lower it and put cobra rims on.

I recently lowered my 99 Mounty, tried to just adjust the Torsion bolts. I ended up removing them to see how low it would go, it only lowered maybe an inch. I then flipped the Torsion Keyways, drilled a notch for the adjustment bolt and was then able to lower about 2 inches.
You might also try getting some lowered Torsion Keyways, Airbagit.com sells these,
