They should work BUT, you'll stress your current bars a lot more.

yah..we're all basically f'd..
torsion bars are easy to work with, but a pain in the *** to actually use...
i got so pissed...i was watchin Trucks! ans stacey was takeing a stock toyota tundra out wheeling....DAMN! his front suspension actually bounced and flexed, as he went over bumps, the ride screamed COMFORTABLE!" i swear that out t-bars are somehow just welded in....the ride feels like it, especially when u get off road....DAMN!!!
sorry....i really hate my ride quality right now...

i dont know man....i dont think the tbars move at all
i've been off roading in other vehicles with springs...they seems to be a lot smoother...or, not as "choppy"..in my truck its like "BUMP!! HOLY SH*T!! BAM!!! BUMP!!!OUCH!!!" but in theres it was like "yeah.......that thing back there......that was a bump.....lets go read some poetry"

The ' B ' series are much better. If your replacing the keys for lift and don't have 1's already, I would suggest getting a set of ' 1 ' rated bars ( personal suggestion ) .

I do have the 1 bars now, but am still unable to convince myself that either the new keys or crank for that matter, are worth it. I plan to keep my truck for quite a while longer and am just worried that the little bit of lift I would get will affect the rest of the front end and cause premature wear on everything else.
