Hi there, I have a 94 lwb 3l v6 pajero that is low in the front end. When you look thru the back end you can see right thru between the chasis and the body ie. its high. However the front is low as. When parked on level groung the front drive shafts on each side incline from the front diff to the wheels. Before i replace the front shocks i would like to here any ideas you have. Today I will try crank the torsion bar and see what happens. Any info would be great.....cheers

Sounds like saged torsion bars. Very common.

Just Adjust them so that the gap between the upper and lower bum stops are about the same (this will return the front to the original reide hight).

Shockers will not alter the hight - they just control the spring or, in you case, torsion bar's "springiness"

saggy front end....fixed!

Cheers for the advice... worked a treat and took only 20 minutes. Stoked with the new ride height. A bit of crc, wirebrush and 2 x 17mm spanners and 2" higher. thanks

You should remember that when you raise the front suspension, the wheel alignment may also be affected. At least get it checked, or you may find that your front tyres start wearing badly.
