#1 bars fully cranked pic request

So i just put a add a leave on my 02 edge and it gave it about a 2 inch lift in the back. i cranked my stock bars all the way and it is at the same height so i guess its time for some new bars. i just wana see some pics of some trucks with there number 1 bars fully cranked so i can kinda get a reference of what kinda of difference it will make and if its even worth it or just save up and get a camburg kit. thanks guys

i think all the bars crank the same way its just the number one bars will last longer becuase they are stronger you dont get more lift out of them...

depends on how many miles/how much you wheeled before you maxxed the bars. you oughtta be ok for awhile-ish. just dont beat on it too hard.
