torsion shackle lift is 2" not 3 and you just crank the torsion bars 8 turns and then put lift shackles on the rear

Yea, and just wait till you make an emergency move or emergency braking and loose control! You'll be really cool then when your layin out on the side of the road or hurt someone else.

Check it again under full load cause you shouldn't have enough room with 12.5" wide 33" tires!
