How do you crank torsion bars? My brother said he would crank the t bars on his friend's 10th gen ( it's a smoking hot chick so I don't blame him ) anything special besides count the cranks? Any special tools needed? Sent from my iPhone using F150 App

Not long to do just have to mark bolt and socket with a sharpie and do one turn each, don't try to do to much at once. Also I bought camber bolt And had a front end alignment done after. Was on my old 2000 f150

Basically jack the front end up to unload the bars, then slowly crank them. not to hard, just dont break the bolt by not jacking it up, had a friend do that haha
