Save your time and money. You can get the same effect by installing Belltech 6400 shackles for $40~50 and cranking the torsion bars for free.

Try a search for more info.

stay away from torsion keys, they are only good for leveling the front end of a truck, and you can do that by cranking the torsion bars anyway so they are not needed, if you use them for lift it will cause excessive wear on the front end parts, truckperformance.com has the best price on those shackles, made by belltech, part#6400

Here are 2 online sources:

http://partzfx.com/Merchant2/merchan...gory_Code=G373
http://www.suspensionconnection.com/...on/3403C2.html

Most places get $50~60 plus shipping. I ordered a set through an auto parts chain store (Murrays) and they were $42.
