Installed a Rough Country leveling kit on my 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500.
Purchased from AmericanTrucks.com
I am not compensated by Rough Country or AmericanTrucks.
This is not an instructional video, just an old man installing new stuff on an old truck.

One of the best videos I've seen on how to get the key off of the torsion bar, thank you!!

I've watched several other videos on getting the keys in and out this was the most self-explanatory thank you

Best video I have seen so far. I am actually about to go out in the yard and do this to my truck.

Thanks! Don't forget to to get a wheel alignment. The camber will be thrown off a bit after the install.

Great job! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to tackle this soon!

Thanks! Be sure to use the right tool. Plus, even though you're just installing a leveling kit, you will need to get a front-end alignment - camber will be off a bit.

This was pretty funny to me, I tried to do the same thing with the C-Clamp and sure enough it bent just like yours did.

Good video, a few things, the torsion unloading tool should be on sooner for relief on thread stress, same when loading. When you installed new key you checked for position on key bolt, not necessary, that kit comes with a longer bolt that you should be using. Also after install you still have a 1" or so difference between front and back. You have to adjust the front to LEVEL the truck that is the whole idea behind the kit. Hopefully your new shocks were purchased for the new height, otherwise they will not work properly and wear right out. Good quality video, glad you emphasized that getting out the old key is a bitch, especially if you live in an area that uses road salt. I used a 30lb electric hammer and knocked the torsion bar right out. Finally be prepared, excelerated wear now on front end parts unless you change out the upper control arm, with one for leveled trucks. Good job!!

Thanks fro watching and commenting. I did eventually lower the front end to make it sit level. Looks and rides better. Good suggestion on using the tool before removing the bolt. The kit I got didn't have the longer bolts but did come with the new shocks.

Any noticeable wear on the front end without new upper control arms?
@bigredjohnson6921
@bigredjohnson6921 10 месяцев назад
I continued to run stock front end parts and did not see excelerated wear over 45,000 miles, but it has been mostly road driving. I do plan on changing upper control arms along with front axle shafts that allow for a greater articulation. Hope this helps. Good luck!

so if I just want to level the front, just do the keys only, right?
@Neon_Sandbox
@Neon_Sandbox 4 месяца назад
At first I thought about just turning the existing bolts to raise the front to make the truck sit level but then decided to buy the kit. Mainly because I needed new shocks. I guess just installing the keys would work just fine.

I bet it bounces bad in the front, should have used the original keys and tightened the bolt all the way
@Neon_Sandbox
@Neon_Sandbox Год назад
Doesn't bounce at all. Using the original key and running the bolt all the way wouldn't have giving it enough lift.

Can I get a link to order this tool or were you got it?
@Neon_Sandbox
@Neon_Sandbox Год назад
You can get it from just about any auto parts store. I got mine from Advance Auto. Some stores offer it as a loaner tool.

Did you get an alignment after?
@Neon_Sandbox
@Neon_Sandbox 11 месяцев назад
Yes. Lifting the front end this way will increase positive camber.
