It's a simple matter of removing the set screws that secure the trailing arms and
loosen the ones in the center of the torsion bar tubes. If you remove laminations, the
set screws won't have any thing to hold against, and your front end will fall apart.
Do it correctly and purchase an adjustable
or pre-lowered beam assembly. While you're
at it, invest in a blue Bentley shop manual.
all the procedures are laid out in there in
a very simple, easy to understand manner that
98% of us can understand.
