yea. exactly what rednutbow said. I only go through cv boots about every 50,000 miles, so thats never really been an issue for me. Mine are cranked ALMOST all the way, probably 1/8th turn back.
well you are have more luck than i do... im going to have to replace the left for the 3rd time in 90000 miles, but the band rubbed a hole in this one! ill have electrical tape the bands like my 4wheeler...

...have any of you ran into camber issues after cranking them to the max?
Crank this way. E= turns until max is achieved on one side or the other. Then back them back off 1.5 - 2.0 turns. I have longer bars than you and just following that procedure has saved my boots and ride. Cranking all the way is hard on them.
Before the SAS I had mine cranked all the way with a 3" body lift and 36" tsl's. Ball joints were fine, hell the ball joints had 50-70k miles on them before I did the crank and then I drove the truck like this for a year with no issues (related to the torsion key crank)
yall are having better luck than me... but I do drive long distances, usually without stopping other than for gas. But the axles have lifetime warranty so I don't have to pay a penny for new boots, I just get a whole new axle!

So other than a torsion key crank, what are my other options for lifting my front end 2 inches?

no, i have a 4 inch blocks that i want to put in the rear to replace the stock 2 inch blocks. i want to bring the front up at least 2 inches, if not 2.5 to bring it a bit closer to level. i like a little bit of rake, just a bit though.
