That's a good baseline to start with because then the body would be level. However, I think most lifted VXes actually sit a little higher in the rear because cranking the torsion bars too far is not good for the CV joints. I never measured mine, but I'd say the rear is about an inch higher, and IMO it looks good that way.

I'd leave yours right where they are and tell the shop to only crank them more if the front end looks like its sitting too low or if you need more clearance to turn the front wheels. They'll probably make you sign a waiver for modifying your suspension anyway, so I don't see why they would have a problem with you having cranked your T-Bars prior to bringing it into the shop.
