I have some questions about cranking the T-Bars to level out my truck. First off, whats the easiest way to crank them? Which way do I turn them? And will this affect ride quality/stability?

 

its pretty easy. just jack the truck up so the wheels are off the ground, and put jack stands underneath the frame. then there is 1 bolt on each bar you turn. about 8 turns is 2". you dont wanna go any more then that. I did 5 turns on both and then let it down and measured it. and it was just about 2" so I did one more turn. so 6 in all. and you wanna measure both sides so its even. and you'll wanna turn them clockwise.

my ride is a bit stiffer, but it rides more like a truck now and doesnt wander when you hit bumps anymore.

 

just a question for you jonny or anyone else that has done it have you noticed any wear and tear on your front end parts or tires. did anyone get an alignment done to fix these things and just if you guys have had any problems with it cuz im looking at doing it too

 

ya, I fogot to mention.. get an alignment after your done too. alot of people say that you dont have to. but since I got new tires right after I cranked the T bars, I got the alignment. (didnt wanna wear out $1,200 tires) and it was only out a lil bit.

 

can you crank them down also? I want to lower my rear end just like an inch so the truck sits level.

 

T-bars are only located on your front suspension, you do not have them on the rear.

 

Oh ok, I dont claim to know anything about a vehicle's suspension except for have an expert work on it. Looks like i'll be looking into a drop kit for the future. Maybe a 2/3.

 

Alright thanks alot, im going to try it out tommorrow and ill let you know how it turns out. Thanks again!
