Hello, I am new to the forum and have a question about Torsion Bar adjustment.
 
First off, I have browsing the forum for almost a year now and have found tons of useful material. Thanks to all. I have saved several $$$ and hours by reading on here first.
 
Alright, now to my question. I have a '95 S-10 Blazer 4DR 4WD LS stock.
 
It seems I have the ever popular Blazer lean. Its leans to the drivers side. I have had this vehicle for about 3yrs and it has had this lean since I have owned it. I didnt really care at first because it didnt seem to affect handling. My concern now is just cosmetic because I am to the point where I want to make it a project rig and start doing some slight mods and I want to fix the lean. From several of the post I have read I have done a little process of elimination. I was changing my brakes today and decided to take a closer look at things underneath. My leaf springs looked ok so I moved up to the torsion bars and I noticed that my drivers side torsion bar is not cranked as far my passenger side one. Looks like a full 3 turns difference. I may be answering my own question but I wanted to see what advise you all might have. Should I go ahead and crank my drivers side up to match the passenger side? or should I crank the drivers side up a little and passenger down a little til I even the heighth out?
 
 I am not concerned about height for adding lift yet, just want to get it leveled out. Lift will be in the future though.

Well crap. Turned it 4 turns and didnt have noticeable change. Maybe it is the leafs. Too much bad weather coming in today to mess with it today. Will save it for another day.
