Jerry Rigd PULL Buggy????????

[07DuallyDmax]

Hey Fellers, Im new to the duramax forum as i just bought a project truck. Ive got a 2007 3500hd i bought wrecked. My Major Problem is that this truck came slightly modifed.The mods im having most trouble with are the front torsion bars.Firstly they are much smaller than my dads 2500hd. his bar codes are 965 and 966 vs my 267 and 268.that dosent seem correct a 2500hd having heavier bars than a 3500hd. The torsion bars were also mounted on the wrong sides. (left on the right and right on the left). There is also a set of Firestone air shocks on the front. Can anyone tell me if this is some cheap way of lowering a dmax for pulling by slamin 1500 torsion bars in and making up for the suspension with air over shocks

Torsion bars don't change ride height by size and why would you put smaller stuff on a puller...do more research

Sounds like that is what he is doing, he's asking a question about it, obviously he bought it that way and trying to figure out why they are there. And the size of them does effect ride height in conjunction with the keys and the adjustment of them.

The 1500 torsion bars are not stout enough to hold the weight of a dmax so it slams the front of the truck.
Yes. It sounds like an attempt at getting the front lower for pulling.

exactly what it sounds like tryin to get the front down more and a lighter rate torsion bar will also keep the front from trying to pop up
