Torsion Bar Crank
First off, I'll introduce my self, I'm David Nicholson. Allrite I know that there are already a lot of post about this but, I turned my torsion bars out now my camber is way out of wack. What can do if anything to correct this? Its wearing out my tires but the left front is worse than the other side. Is there anything I can do?

You an change your camber....you're supposed to be able to change your camber. IF the shop can't get it close enough, you'll need cam essentrics aka cam bolts for the upper arms.
btw: wtf is an alignment shop doing giving you a crooked steering wheel??? is this due to cranking? well..cranking bars has nothng to do with steering, so..... no possible way cranking of the bars messed with steering wheel alignment.

Well, they said it was off already just a little bit, so I said go ahead and fix it, and they did "supposedly" but when I left the steering wheel was crooked as hell. And no I drove for a year with the bars cranked already. They told me there was nothing i could do about the camber? So where do I get these bolts at? Its eating through my tires, but one is worse than the other

Cam bolts....they are the bolts that bolt the upper control arm to the frame... What they do is give you an additional 3 degrees of adjustment. It's enough for a lifted truck, and enough for a slammed truck.

just curious as to how far from va, i know nothing about nc besides outerbanks and crap like that.....as for your truck go somewhere else and point it out to them before hand, try contacting offroad shops in your area and ask where they bring the trucks they lift or work on to get an alignment they will usually send you to a pretty reputable alignment shop......

Haha, I hear ya, let me know if you go sometime, I'd love to go with some other ranger guys from up here. Im all for meeting new friends. And one more question about my truck, I stated earlier that only one tire is off on camber, do you suggest to just buy one kit and do the bad tire or go ahead and buy two kits and fix both of them.

There is no way to adjust camber from the factory. When I did an alignment on my truck I had to get the cam bolts. From the factory the bolts don't have a cam they just have a steel square block. This puts it at factory spec when at the factory. To do any other adjustments you need to install the cam bolt kit.

I hit a drainage ditch in a feild going about 25 and mine got messed up. They replaced them when I went to make sure that I didn't knock somethin out of wack, which I did. But YES they can replace them. Where did you go? if need be come down toward my house. There are a few good shops there.
