might be posable to reset your torsion bars. i belive the car should sit a little lower at the front any way. measure from floor to top of arch, all round. both backs should be same and fronts abot 20mm less.
so you could be lucky, and only take a very short time, have a look here http://www.nissan4x4ownersclub.com/f...t=torsion+bars zippy |
