Not Ranked
Do you guys have a copy of the assembly manual? It's not a difficult process, but it is somewhat involved. I used to have a copy of the Contemporary assembly manual electronically, but that was on a computer that I no longer own. Perhaps Mickmate (Nick Acton) can send you a copy. The procedure is in there. It involved taking a length of steel or aluminum stock, removing the front shock, drilling holes in the stock and placing it in the place the shock used to be. At that point, due to the stagger of the splines on either end of the torsion bar, it will only fit in one way. The whole key is to have the spacing of the holes on the bar stock correct. The manual tells you how far apart they need to be, based on the torsion bars you have and the weight of your engine. The bar essentially puts the unloaded suspension at a preset height, allowing you to put the torsion bars at a null position, so that then the expected weight of the engine loads the front suspension it squats at a predetermined amount. I probably confused you more than I helped you here, but it'll all make sense when you see the manual. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
