1" to 1.5" lift n an 07?

hey guys, I have done a pile of searching and maybe I missed something, but who do I cheaply go about a 1-1.5" lift in my 4.0l 2007 sport supercab? i'm kinda unsure how the torsion bar cranking works, I understand that could give me my front lift, and how do you crank those bars up? but what can I do for the rear? spacers of some sort?

my reason, i'm running 265/75R15 BS Dualer AT revo2 still look to have lots of clearance, but an extra inch wouldn't hurt. I don't hual heavy loads, 95% highway, 5% in the bush to go fishing.

any advice and info on this would be greatly appriciated.

thanks guys.

Cranking the torsion bars is really easy. Just jack up the front of the truck and tighten the bolts. For the rear you can install belltech shackles or a lift block or an add a leaf. I had the torsion bars on my ranger cranked and shackles in the rear. Do a search for the beginners thread of interest it has lots of good info

Crank your bars up front and get blocks for the rear. Super easy to do and wont take very long at all!
