Crazy Torsion bar installation procedure

I'm kinda intrigued on how he's planning to actually do that, since the stock LCA's install in such a way that you can't clock them a hex flat off in that direction. If he's got tubular LCA's he might be able to manage it, but I think then he would find that actually adjusting the ride height would be a real problem.

The issue is you really can't set preload on a torsion bar system. The torsion bar adjuster only sets the angle of the control arm. Once the weight is sitting on the wheels, the load on the bars is just the weight of the car.

So in this particular kids experiment, assuming he actually manages to install the LCA's a hex flat off, the moment he releases whatever mechanical advantage he's using to accomplish the mis-clocking the UCA will be smashed against the upper bump stop. If he sets the car on its wheels and the suspension compresses, well guess what, it's still just the weight of the car on the bars at that point. If it doesn't compress then the load is higher than the weight of the car, but he's got no suspension. And no way to lower the car from the suspension being fully extended either...

I seriously doubt he's actually done this.
