Hey everyone just looking for some info.Can someone tell me if I put 2 or 3'' blocks on the rear of my 2000 4x4 will I need new torsion bar cams to match the lift in the rear or can I crank up the oems enough?

 

Most people can get 2 inches of lift by cranking up their torsion bars, but each truck is different. I'd recommend staying away from the aftermarket torsion bar keys personally.

 

i agree, anything over what your stock torsion bars will go fully cranked will put your front cv shafts at a bad angle and cause wear, and could cause them to snap at any extreem angle like what is experienced offroading

 

Thanks for the advice I wasnt sure why they sell the cams with the kit if there not needed,or worth the risk! if i put the 2'' blocks in how far up do you think I should crank up the front.I just want the truck to stand a little proud I dont do much off roading if I do its for hunting & its not that bad where I go,also who maks a good block & u-bolts that wont compromise the pinion angle.

 

I'd crank up the torsion bars first and take a look at the truck. Then I would decide what size, if any, rear lift block I wanted.

 

Thanks for the info I cranked up the bars & could only get 1 1/8 inch more of lift the driver side the bolt is all the way in, the passenger did not go as far in to get the same height. looks like if i would crank it all the way that side would go another inch, is this normal

 

I know wandell and others dont like the keys, But so far I like mine..heres a pic.with the 2" keys and 3" body lift.315/70R/17 tires....
