[QUOTE="Yardsale , post: 632578, member: 58988"] Q, Could you please explain? It is my understanding with a spindle lift that the spindle is relocated lower on the knuckle lowering the wheel (brakes, et al) effectively raising the vehicle. It is my understanding with a "torsion bar twist" that the lower control arm is lowered relative to the frame effectively raising static height. With both of these approaches, the distance from full compression to full extension of the lower control arm (amount of travel) remains the same. The practical difference between the two is that the TT reduces the amount of extension available from the static riding height while the spindle lift does not. [/QUOTE]
