hey guys im new here
i have had the van for about 2 years now and i havent driven it much as i have only just got my lisence(just turned 17) but the van was used for my dads business just as a spare vehicle, but now he has given it to me

i installed the 2.5" lowering blocks myself and done a few other little things but i cant get around how to lower the front of the van, i know i just to unscrew the torsion bars but im not 100% sure what they are. i stuffed around with the van last weekend and i disconnected everything except the control arms and it still didnt lower the front of the van.... any suggestions???
also what motor swap do you suggest?


thanks mitch

if you look under the van around where the gearbox is you'll see the adjuster screw section for the torsion bars.

that is the torsion bar... but the adjuster bolts are further back towards the middle of the van, around the gearbox area.
