What are some other ways to level out the front of the truck other than cranking the t-bars on a 4x4.

Yea I guess so. I cranked the bolts 2 times already which gave me an inch. I didnt get an alignment and it doenst seem as though the tires are out of alignment. If I crank the bolts again I will probably go and get them aligned.

If you only went one inch you are probably still in specs (green!)for the front end.
