I just got a print out of VIN info off of a thread on this site. My 97 EB is apparently a 1 on the torsion bar list? out of a through L and then ther eis 1 and 2. Second lowest? What does this mean?

Also, my rear spring code is an F, out of F, H and L. What does this mean?

Anyone know the ratings for the torsion bars and rear spring? I am going to lif tmy X 2 inches with a torsion twist and add a leaf/shacles in the back. :D
 






The F is the standard 4-door leaf spring. The other two codes are for the mono-leaf and the air ride leaves.

1 is the stiffest torsion bar rating, 2 is the second stiffest, B is the third stiffest and so on......
