front end sits too low

I accidentally found that if you swap L & R, it will ride much higher. Indeed, I barely got the bars back in. That was my 69 Dart slant decades ago, when I was much dumber. I drove it for years until stolen, and it did settle a bit so I got the height right with plenty of adjustment left. People say if you swap them, they will eventually snap. I don't recommend, but could be a poor-boy solution. I have read of bars snapping (or anchor failing) while driving and no loss of control, just a surprise.
