My 94' 4Runner leans, it's about an inch lower on the drivers side both in the front and the rear.

I searched and found the the thread down below and it says to adjust the torsion bars to fix the lean to one side.

My question is, if I adjust the the torsion bar nuts and bolts, will it even out the front as well as the rear at the same time...?

I have looked at the torsion bars and the measurement on the bolts extending out are exactly the same measurement, so which side should I wrench up or down to get it to even out...? Passenger side or drivers...?

Also, I was told that the length sticking out on the torsion bolts should have the same measurement on both sides...? Or can they be different measurements...?

Mine seems to lean a little too....toward the passenger side. I always figured that when I sit my fat arse behind the wheel it would even it out?

I would say just do your torsion bars. That's what I do to lower/raise my front end. What I do is count the threads on the adjust bolt and get both sides fairly even. Then you can measure with a tape the distance from a spot on the wheel to the fender trim, and they should be within 1/4" of each other.

Don't go by the torsion bar bolt length, go my the fender-rim distance. Either crank the low side up to match the high side or crank the high side down to match the low side or meet the two in the middle some place.

It may be the low front side is transferring more load to the rear spring on the same side, making it sag more. Or it may be the other way around, you'll find out when you do the front. If still uneven, consider swapping rear springs side-side.

Thanks Guys, My gas tank is on the passenger side and leans to the drivers side. I think I'm gonna go by the off-road.com link and go from there and see what comes from it, I should be able to even it out from there. Thanks for the help, believe me it is appreciated, especially when ya got a fire breathing wife breathin' down your neck, saying, that better be running tomorrow to get your butt to work.

Also, an update on the tranny cooler, it's unbelievable what a difference a tranny cooler makes, it shifts waaay smoother and sooner, no more hammer shifting, it also runs alot cooler(according to my infrared thermomater) and I could swear I'm getting better gas mileage already.

Thanks
