Three things.
There are course thread and fine thread t bar adjusters. They will not be the same length when adjusted, necessarily.
My car has one of each for whatever reason and one is noticably longer even though the car is level.
It's also possible the adjuster wasn't seated in the control arm, and it finally dropped into its little grooves.
Two. With the trans cross member not bolted in, it's possible that the torsion bar cross member popped a weld somewhere, like where it welds to subframe or floor pan or something. That trans cross member is part of the structure and helps so flex in the frame cross member.
Three, those hex ends on the t bars aren't a perfect fit in the socket. It's possible it wasn't seated or maybe there was a tiny rock in there or something, and it finally seated.
All of these would cause the car to drop a bit.
Question, what's the white under the red grease? Are those torsion bars painted white?
