Default RE: Leveling kit = : )

I bought torsion bar keyways on ebay a while back for $90. Got them installed and thats actually the lowest it can go, the adjustment bolts are all the way out. It can sit much higher but I dont want to start messing up geometry on the truck. The steering is already right when you turn the wheel all the way in both directions. I think after 2 or 3 inches is when you need to start moving drivetrain components like dropping the front diff, the torsion bar assembly, and transfer case position. Hopefully the 1" block in the back will fix it up good. For anyone on long island wanting to get there truck lifted....goto the truck shop in West Sayville, they got a good operation going on.

these here are better than the nes I have because they are more adjustable (see the dual stage where you can sit the adjustment bolt). Dunno if it would work on a 2007 though.

You need shocks, because the old ones top out and ride like crud. I did the keys. And my truck rides stiff in the front now and its not springy. I personally like the stiffer ride.
