How do I adjust the torsion bars on my 1999 Nissian pickup to raise the front higher?

Not familiar with your specific vehicle but torsion bars have an adjusting bolt at the front or the rear. It will be in between a pocket in the rear cross member or inside the front lower control arm. If it's really tight, raise the front end up to lower the force needed to turn the bolt. After it's adjusted, bounce the vehicle before measuring again.
