[QUOTE="swshawaii, post: 1052249, member: 67547"] Unbelievable you SCORED a 2005 with 12,500 miles. How did you determine that it needs new torsion bars? Not very common at any mileage. Did you try tightening the torsion bolts to get desired ride height? Much more common with 2001-05 Sport Tracs to have weakened or flattened rear leaf springs that affect ride height. Another extremely common issue with ride height is caused by deteriorated body mounts. Especially the orange foam "B" and "C" locations directly below the cab. Body mounts at the radiator support and the rear most body mounts below the bed are rubber and usually intact. Take a look. Dated article but still relevant. Aftermarket polyurethane body mount kits are available and widely used. Prothane 6116 and Daystar KF04015 are custom body mount kits made for 2001-05 Sport Tracs, [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.agcoauto.com/content/news/p2_articleid/183[/URL] [/QUOTE]
