Torsion bar lift is pretty simple. Do the same amount of turns on each side. Then make minor adjustments to get the same ground to fender clearance on each side. Drive it around a couple of miles, then recheck, and get it aligned. I would stick to 1-1.5 inches. Anything greater than two inches and you will prematurely wear front end parts.

 

the negative effect of the tortion bar lift is a posibility of snapping the TB

 

How far do you have to lift the front to get 33's ?? ... will 33's fit on the rear without modifying anything?

the 33's should fit on the back no problem , on the front i fit 32"s on it before i even cranked the t-bars , but then i put new rims on and they rubbed bad. i raised it a little over 2" and its good now. what are tires 33xwhat

 

Hey I'm thinking of doing the same to my dakota...I have 33x12.50x15 and im gonna crank the TB's and use 2" blocks in the back will this allow the 33's to fit?

 

i think you'll probaly have do a little bit of cutting to get them to fit. y you putting blocks on the back , do you like the *** end higher than the front?

Ok ill revice this post for a bit

So this is an interesting idea for me. Ive been thinking of getting 33x10.5 on my truck but i dont want them to rub as it is my only ride. But is there a was to jack up the back end this way? I saw that someone asked this already and that someone else said that 33s will fit in the rear. But my truck sits level as it is and i dont want it looking goofy with the nose in the air.

My other question is, can i tell if this has already been done before?


Thanks

 

I found that somebody actually makes an add a leaf kit for the Daks. that'll lift the rear up a bit.

 

Do you remember where you saw it or a brand name? I was thinking that too but i saw that someone shot it down. The extra lifting capasity would be cool too!
