With the front suspension jacked up and hanging with no weight on it, I was able to remove the torsion adjustment bolt one side at a time....I counted the turns out so I would have a starting point when I resembled the parts....On mine the bolts were long enough and not under any pressure/load at last few turns out...then with suspension now hanging I reassembled everything eliminating that block under the head of the bolt. The block that is used has a larger ID than the one removed and the bushing reduces the hole in it so the block stays centered on the bolt....This just raises the the bolt heads up the thickness of that removed block, giving more clearance between the bolt head and the ground....You will have to turn the bolt in more to make up the block's thickness.....The bolts have a large amount of thread to do this....This is a guess on how much more turns in the bolt will need to go in to get your original ride height....you will have to play with the adjustment to get the ride height where you want it.....Remember this modification is just a way of raising the bolts so they aren't as vulnerable to scraping on speed bumps or crowned roads.....Also the bolts have been in there many years so I would soak then down with penetrant ahead of time to ease the removal and use an anti-seize paste when you reassemble the threaded portion of the bolt.....I think that's about it but please be safe working under your truck and support it well with good jack stands.... be safe...
