request for pics with aal, torsion keys,and body lift

Hate me I know.. but my buddy got the kit from fatbobsgarage.com with aal and torsion keys and it looks pretty damn good and he said the ride isnt even different besides a bit of stiffness. I don't have the money for a superlift or rcd so Im going to bodylift and do add a leafs and torsion keys, so if anyone has pictures of this setup I would greatly appreciate it .. thanks guys . ps I plan on running 34's once all of this is done

Get ready to replace ball joints often with those torsion keys.

No we're just yanking your chain because we have nothing better to do. yes it really is that bad. Go with the BL, AAL and crank the t-bars. DO NOT get torsion keys.

2 inches is as high as you want to go and stock keys will give you that.
