I am converting a 6cy to a 340 i have installed the k member, disk brakes etc..
What position should the LCA adjustment arm be in prior to inserting the stronger Torsion Bars. Does anybody know?
I don't think there is any specific angle. As you install the bars from the rear through the crossmember, look at where the flats of the hex are in relation to the LCA socket and the T_bar crossmember socket. Since the T-bar crossmember is welded solid, the only angle adjustment you have is the LCA. Concentrate on lining up the hexes at the crossmember and move the LCA accordingly. Just rotate the LCA so the T-bar will slip in. You will want the adjusting screw to be backed out and the lever in the arm loose. If after pulling down on the LCA you find you need more angle, remove the bump stops and that will give you some more adjustment. Get the bar in (with grease on the hex), install the retaining ring in the rear, then adjust the car height by turning the adjusting screws. The factory bars are left and right and I don't think it matters on the factory bars which end goes where but I install them so the numbers are readable from the crossmember end.
