Cranked up the torsions some more on my 97' once they settled only 4.5 turns for each side overall, wondering if the cv angles looked ok to go with before i get it aligned tomorrow

they look fine, most people crank them in all the way and have no problems...ive done it, just make sure you sit level or your sway bar end links break pretty fast...i usually disconnect them when adjusting torsion bars for a more accurate measurment, having them connected will give you an innacurate measurement.
