Hands down the best video about the torsion explained and excellent visual. I thought the torque on that bar setting setoff would be a huge twist. LOL. Now I get it. That torsion bar twist of an 1/8 inch or so lifts the truck. I had no idea until I saw this video before I do this. Thank you so much.

Great video. I put an extra leaf in the 4 pack on each back spring stack to better handle the ballast weight, and I bought a key kit to lift the front up 1.75” for my 2011 Duramax. It holds the 1000lb Western MVP3 pretty well with 1000 pounds of counter weight in the back of the bed.

GREAT video! I've never had a lifted or leveled truck and I just installed a MaxxCam2 on a 2009 Silverado 2500. After adjusting my keys so that I have the approx. 3/8" gap on the upper control arms and the stops my truck ends up being completely level (approx 41-3/4" front and back.) I apologize if this is a dumb question or the answer is obvious to some... when leveling a truck like this does level not really mean "level?" I noticed your leveled ride height after install still has a 1" Rake from back to front... is there a reason or a preference to leave a slight rake versus making the ride height the same from back to front? I realize that if your ride height is the same from back to front and you use your truck for towing/hauling it will cause your truck to rake from front to back... but i'm curious as to YOUR (or anybody else) reasoning. Thanks for your Time!

I'll just add. You will need an alignment after this. If you plan to do this yourself make sure you start off in a near perfectly level surface or you will end up tightening one torsion bar more than the other to get it level ( you may have to anyways due to the gas tank on one side )

@jeremystone9783
@jeremystone9783 8 лет назад
does aftermarket torsion keys really put a load on the front end components? ball joints etc. There are alot of people who are against them because they claim cranking the keys up is very detrimental to the front end..
@suspensionmaxxman
@suspensionmaxxman 8 лет назад
+Jeremy Stone The increased ride height will increase the angle on the upper ball joints. But if you set the ride height according to the instructions (1/4- 3/8" gap on upper control arm) the upper ball joints will still have acceptable life expectancy. If you max out the upper control arm on the suspension stop bracket you will have no downward suspension travel and more angle on your upper ball joints. With no downward travel the ball joints are being pounded every suspension cycle. This is why it is critical not to over adjust the torsion bars past 2.5" or past the upper control arm spec mentioned above.

Your stiffness is all in the torsion bars. If you crank them up to lift the truck up it will be stiffer. If you loosen the bolts off to drop it down it will be softer. I installed a lift kit in the front them loosened off my torsion bars and it rides like a Cadillac now.

I'm in for some figuring, I have a 93 Chevy k1500, I bought a 2004 2500hd and swapped in the 6.0 into the 93, swapped the gear in 251c transfer case &used the 4l80e as well. Now I wanting to use the front differential and spindles because they're larger on Duel piston. I've got the differential part figured out, but the spindles are taller, so... I'm wondering if I could loosen the key adjustment to compensate, I don't want the upper a arm to make up the difference because I would lose that travel. Guess I'm going to have to just put it on and see what happens, if it don't work/ Square up, I'll have to modify my front 6 inch lift bracket to be longer at the bottom a arm mount keep the upper and lower equal. Any thoughts 👂👂👂👂

@@whojr1963 I would invest in the A-arms , if you are planning to go 2.5". This would allow for proper downward suspension travel over maxing out the upper control arm against the droop stop. The stock control arm will function but with limited suspension travel and a firmer ride when riding against the bumpstop at 2.5" of lift.
