New key or just crank it?

i would say keys my self, it depends on what you want though. i just ordered some keys because i love the ride of my truck, its un expectedly smooth and soft, cranking the bars would tighten everything up and you would need new shocks or extenders anyways in either situation.
Just so you all know, the keys only allow you to crank the bars MORE than the stock ones. Ordering keys does NOT change the ride characteristics that would otherwise be changed by simply cranking the factory bars.
Think about it, what is it that levels the front end? With the TB suspension, the bars are twisted to create the effect of a coil spring. So in order to raise the ride height, you have to add more twist to "load" the bar, which will bring the front end up.
Adding keys does nothing but load more twist on the bars than the factory keys are able to provide. So then, when you crank the aftermarket keys, you are able to put MORE twist on the bars, which will raise the front end even higher.
Just sharing that with you...as you can save yourself a few $$ by cranking the factory keys first to see if you get the ride height you need. If you cannot create enough height using the factory keys, THEN you should buy the aftermarket ones.
