On my 88 the torsion bars are olive green, there arent any stickers left but I did sand a spot and there is NOT black paint under the green. What the hell is the deal with them, I tried to decrank fully and the truck only sits about 2" lower in the front(stock rake) with the ajuster out fully so I'm thinking either the bars are holding it up or the truck has leveling keys.
