Default 88 torsion keys lift

i looked in the faq section and it said 97 up may work. I am wondering if anyone has used these and what altercations were required for them to work. i looked on ebay and found some for a 91 dakota will they work? thanks

Well this site lists 91-96. http://www.totalperformanceonline.co...1321/50/100-14
My guess is they will work.

This guy installed a full suspension lift kit which induces the indexed keys, IIRC his is a 88. Check to see if he had to modify anything for them. http://www.walt-n-ingrid.com/modifications.html

The site claims you can fit 33s on with just the keys, is that accurate?

Yes you can fit 33s with just lift keys. You may have to cut the corners of the fenders though. A 2in body lift will clear it.

Yes you can do the weld trick. It is in the FAQ2 in this section.
