Torsion bar install question

440 Mike said
Torsion bars are original 892/893. Still have the blue paint daubs.

With no UCA's installed, just strut rod, LCA, and T bar the lower bump stop has about 1-3/4 inch gap below the frame pad. How does that sound to you?

You should be fine. Just don't tighten everything completely until you have the car on it's feet with a normal load in it. Otherwise, the bushings will be in a bind and may not last long.
