Hey guys, just picked up a 95 Montero 
I installed some 33s on it but still need to adjust the front torsion bars. Any how to's on that?
Here is a quick pic:

They're 15x10 and I don't know the off set. I wish they didn't stick out as much either but I had to take what I could get since I blew a tire on the stock wheels and these were up for sale. The tires are 33x12.5.

They sit similar to this:
But I don't have the over fenders.. yet.
Try to find a set of Montero wheels. I've got 33x12.50s on stock wheels and they fit great.

I have a set of stock wheels (15x6 I believe) with 31s but one of the tires blew and the others had bad dry rotting. I'm sure I'll get another set of wheels if I keep the truck for long, but for now, these will do since I don't plan on hitting any serious trails. I will say, that picture does make it look pretty deceiving. I'm gonna look into some SR fenders for the time being.

I wish I would have found a set of those. I'd even be content with 32x11.5s, but as of right now, these will have to do. I just raised the front via torsion bars, looks much better now but I need to get an alignment. That pic makes it look much worse than it really is though.

Yes. On level ground...
(1) Raise the front end up off the ground.
(2) Loosen both nuts on the torsion bar bolt.
(3) Using a wrench (pneumatic preferably), turn the torsion bar bolt (count the number of turns) by at least 10 turns on both sides. IIRC, tightening the bolt lifts the truck but just doublecheck it when you do this.
(4) Drop and check the height is to your liking. If not, tighten or loosen the torsion bar bolt on both sides (again carefully counting the number of turns).
(5) When you get it to the height you want, tighten the lock nuts.
CAUTIONS:
Your vehicle will likely need an alignment afterwards.
Doing this lift reduces the amount of available upwards travel of your front A-Arms which reduces articulation so you really only want to lift it only as much as required to effectively clear your tires.
I prefer the Montero personally, but that's just me. :ylsmoke: heck, I prefer it to my 'photogenic' car (Audi 01 S4 twin turbo v6:Wow1
.BTW, there's a relatively large group of Montero off roaders in AZ :Wow1: (yeah, kinda hard to believe). If you want, I can put you in contact with them.

Off roader, thanks for the tip! You have to tighten the bolts so the bar gets pushed up against the beam more. This off roading thing is completely new to me so I went on a small trail to try out the new setup:
So far, it's a lot of fun, but I need to find better places to go. So do these AZ Montero guys have a forum?
Thanks again!
