Ok, so my 30 year old springs we a little droopy in the rear. I took 2 turns out of each front torsion bar adjusters.

Car looks closer to level, still drives good, but measure ground to wheel well and I am not even side to side.

Where should I be measuring ride height? Is there a right way?

Does anyone bother to do this on scales to set the "tweak" like on my Radio Controlled cars? Does that matter for daily driver?

measure from the top of the wheel arch, in the center. The front to back will be different, not much you can do about that. The adjustment knobs should be use to get it close to perfect.

Asside from that. Do what Joe said.
