1. Jack the car up, rest chassis on axle stands and spray torsion bar ends with some WD40.
2. Remove wheels and the shock absorber lower mounting bolt.
3. Lever cap off the torsion bar and spray ends with more WD40.
4. Measure distance between the top and hub shoulder and the wheel arch lip.
5. You''''ll need to make a spacer (old piece of exhaust) a spare nut bolt and washer (10 mm high tensile).
6. Fit the spacer over the axle tube with the bolt/nut/washer on top. Tighten the nut against the washer.
7. Wind the nut to force the bolt away and draw the torsion bar out. If its a bit sticky give it a bang.
8. Once the bar starts to move get rid of the spacer.
9. With the measurement you took subtract the amount you want to lower ie 30mm. Lift the suspension arm up with the trolley jack to get the desired height.
10. When you''''ve got the right height, refit the bar. Start by tapping it in by hand.
11. Knock the bar in flush with an extension bar, dont mess the end up!
12. Refit cap and dampers.
13. Take beer from fridge and gulp down very fast (may result in a misfire!)
14. Drink more beer and stagger to bed.
15. In the morning going to work chuck it round every bend (making sure the back end is lowered enough. ie don''''t flip the car round)
