More Lift

Hey boys! Need some help. I just got new wheels/tires on my '03 Silverado 1500 4WD. It has a 6" lift kit on already. I can lift the rear up more in many different ways no problem. My question is what to do about getting the front up a bit more? Should I crank on the torsion bar key bolts or get leveling torsion bar keys themselves? I'm tryin for 2" more. Of course I know whichever way I go I'll need an alignment. Or if you think of different way lemme know. Thanks.

Re: More Lift

I'd start by using the stock torsion bolts and hopefully that will get you where you want to be. But if you go with leveling keys be very careful not to over crank them bars, the ride will suffer severely, and your front end parts will wear out quicker then you can replace them because of the severe angles they will be set at...
