I just want to add a reminder that if you do crank the t bars without the new control arms you will not get a good camber. And I will find a more durable cv axle, It maybe *** simple as adding an inch to the shaft of the CV axle. That may change the geometry enough so that the angles will lessen.

i want 2 crank mine but im not ready yet haha i cranked them 1/2 inch to even out my sagging and the passenger cv started spewing grease clean that all up and 2 weeks later the cv axle seal and output shaft bearing went. Not saying the could be cause of the tbar crank put the problem arose when i cranked them just that little bit

It was likely the the CV boots time. I almost want to say if you got over a hundred thousand miles just replace the axles. Especially if you touch the torsion bars. I may even add a few thick washers or connect a cable to the upper or lower control arm from about where the shock bolts to the frame so that the wheel can't drop lower than it does when setting flat.. this will keep the axle from exceeding the safe angles when you get a tire in the air. It'll take some wheel travel away though but till I get this CV axle thing whipped It may have to do.
