Rear end of 2008 H3 Alpha not level
Hi All,
I noticed the back of my H3 looked out of level in the back. When I measured the rear bumper & fender there is a 1" difference between right & left side. I don't know anything about torsion bars etc. Is it possible the torsion bars if they have a right-left adjustment are not set the same? If so is it an easy fix?
Thanks!

my GUESS is that misadjusted t bars could affect the rear since the frame doesnt bend when you raise one side. leveling the rear with the t bars is however probably not a good idea!.
did you measure while you were sitting in it? that would be like trying to tie a string around your finger.
it does make you wonder just how/why it gets 1 in off huh? it REALLY makes me wonder if the front is perfectly level side to side just how the back could be 1 in. off if the frame is not bent. so it must be the t bars. back to step one!!
if would be interesting to take a good level h3 and count turns and see what happens to the rear if one side is messed with.
i may do that since mine is a virgin. i'd need to park at walmart tho
the big question,,,how many levelers measure the rear/all 4 corners??
