I have a 87 Honda civic Wagovan 2wd.

 

I am looking to get this wagon sitting very low and I have already loosened the torsion bolt nuts all the way to where there almost falling off. If I remove the torsion bolt nut completely will I lose all suspension? Or will it sit low with very little suspension travel?

 

Is there any other way to go lower with torsion bar suspension?

 

Let me know thanks.

DO NOT REMOVE THE NUT!!!!!!!!! It is there for a reason.

 

If you want to get low you will need to re-index the torsion bar which is not a big deal. There is a write up around here somewhere.
