redkneck Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Anyone in here done one of those torsion bar lifts? My z71 i think has sagged a bit in the front. I was reminded of this this week when looking around at the camp for turkey signs going through a mud hole i went down and messed up another fog light. I see those keys sell for 70 bucks and adjustables sell for about 240. Was wondering how many in here have put some lift on their rides (not body lifts). Thanks guys.

Shaun_300 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Not me, I'm 2wd. I've put a set of those adjustable torsion keys in a truck at work though. They work pretty slick! And one of our apprentices has a 96 Chevy with a 6" suspension lift with 35" tires on it. It's a pretty tall truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkneck Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Were they pretty easy to put on? They look like a piece of cake. I'd like to get it somewhere above stock. I figure it's sagged an 1" or so in the front (driven about 40k a year on some rough roads), and i think i'd like to pick it up 1.5 or so above factory. I guess you just keep pulling it out, making adjustments to the cam and setting it back down till you get it right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 they work but they dont allow for proper tire camber when all the way up. Sometimes you can get the camber in but the caster will not adjust right. You can turn up the stock one you know? If you truck is sagging get on a level ground and use a tape messure, jack up the frame so the suspension is unloaded and turn them clockwise 1/4 turn at a time then let it down and bounce the truck to get it settled and remeasure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
