Uneven T-Bar Adjustment

[arcwcb]

So, I went to adjust my t-bars this afternoon, shooting for around 22.75" hub to fender (stock was 21.25-21.5). I jacked up the front, marked the bolts, and did three full turns on each side. When I set it down, the passenger side was significantly higher, about 3/4". I kept playing with the adjustment, but the drivers side settles out WAY more and leaves the passenger side about 0.5 to 0.75" higher. Can anybody think of a reason for this? I didn't want to keep cranking on the driver side if there was a reason it didn't want to come up even with the passenger side. Right now I'm about 2.5 turns passenger and 3.5 turns driver, with passenger side higher. Should I keep cranking the drivers side and try to get it to come up even with the passenger side?

Drive around and the suspension to settle, remeasure both sides and crank or uncrank on each side as needed. It's not an exact science or equal turns on each side. It's all trial and error until you get it dialed in equally on both sides.

Sounds good,I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something unusual that it adjusted so differently side-to-side.

Thanks for the help!

Drivers side always has more wieght on it so spring adjustment will be different.

Same thing happened with mine the first time I cranked it and the turns were uneven

I finally got it leveled out at 22.75" on both sides, but nobody can do the alignment, they keep saying wheel offset is too aggressive and the tire is too big for their machine to work... Where does everybody go for their alignments? Wheels are 20x10 -19 and tires are 33x12.50, so it's an extremely mild setup...

firestone lifetime alignment for me. hasnt been any issue with my 35s but i still have 16s. next time you see a jeep with 20s, stop and ask him where he goes...theres a million of those things circling the mall parking lots... hahaha
