I used the leveling keys for my truck. My friend just cranked his torsion bars up. The difference I noticed is that he has a little rougher of a ride than I do.

Wrong.

There is no difference between keys and turning the screws.

Umm yea there is. With the keys installed you dont have to turn the screws in as much. I only have one full turn on each and my truck is level.

What I am saying is, save your money. You can get the same results by turning the screws.

The keys do the job of turning the bolts a few turns. They index the torsion bar at a angle equivalent to a couple of turns on the bolts.

No difference in final results or ride. Just a waste of money.

If I had to do it over again I would have just turned the screws. I only spent $250.00 total for the keys and installation but could have used that money elsewhere.
