Just wonderin, I've heard of guys that "crank" the front end of their old Mopes down but doing something with the torsion bars. I've had a looksee but can't figured out how this is done with the exception of turning the nut where the bar bolts to the k-frame. I love the "cranked down" stance but I'm wondering if this has any negative affects on handling or suspension geometry, etc. The car was a 318 stock, now has warmed over 440. Oh and if I decide to do this......how do I do it? Thanks. You guys been a great help in the past.

Threr is a bolt which goes up the center of the lower control arm on each side which raises and lowers the ride height.  Get the car where you like it and then get the allignment set at a shop that knows old mopars.
