Cranking them lifts just fine but it makes the ride alot stiffer...

I bought the aftermarket keys. I easily got 2 3/4 inches and it looks like there is still plenty of lift left in them. (thinking about getting rear blocks and crankin the front up higher)

Cranking the torsion bars has been know to cause more stress on your fron tend parts than going with an actual leveling kit. I went with new keys on my truck...

Daystar makes a 2.5" leveling kit, using polyurethane bushings. Realtively cheap too.
