DONT DO IT.
if you turn up the torsion bars it will but stress on your ball joints an wear them out really fast. one of my buddies had a Z71 and he turned his up 2 months later he had to replace his.

The literal answer is to tighten the bolt that goes through the adjuster at the frame side of the torsion bar.
