I am working on a 78 Birchaven that is too low in the front. The adjusting bolts on the pork chops are bottomed out. I have ordered the extra long bolts from Jim K. but need a question about the pork chop position with adjusting bolt removed and pork chop in its relaxed position. Should the pork chop extend below the brace that it is housed in or in the case of this coach the pork chop is flush with the bottom of the brace and in need of indexing the torsion bar one flat to correct position of pork chop.

Just looked up torsion bar in maintenance manual and the pork chop should be 1 1/2" to 2" below crossmember

From manual:
5. Insert torsion bar adjusting arm into crossmember, position so the arm will engage the torsion bar and the end of the arm will be 1-3/4"-2" below the crossmember (See figure 17). Tap crossmember forward enough to engage bar into arm.

I love it when I can answer my own question. Goes to shown the manual is load with info if one just takes the time to read it.

I could have just not posted this thread but it might be helpful for some else down the road.
