Hey guys,

I was wondering if instead of a body lift if I could get all the height with a levelling kit and bigger blocks or from adding leaf springs. Does a 3" leveling kit actually give me a whole 3" in the front?

Pics and opinions would be great !

 

I'm posting from my BB but if you look in my profile pics I have a 3" level and the 3" blocks in the back

 

I took a look it looks great, so 3" level + 3" block puts it at level and a little higher, are those 33's?

2.5" but this is kind of what I have in mind

My tires are 35's and I got everything from ready lift

 

One problem Jarett R has a 04+ BS, rclack it says you have a 2000 BS
his is leveled with spacers which are legit. If your looking to level your 2000
Just crank your stock t-Bars and but an add-a-leaf or block in the back
DON'T buy a "leveling kit" all they are is reindexed keys, that kill your ride and put a lot of stress on the front end. Don't buy what you can do for free

 

How many inches can I put on the t bars with out changing or hurting the ride/t bars, I offroad regularly, would I run into any problems with cranked T bars?

 

I cranked my torsion bars 2.25 inches in the front and off road regularly as well as tow regularly without any problems what so ever. I added a taller block in the rear and run 35" tires with my setup.

 

sounds like what I want to do, what are the cons a stiffer ride?

 

The only downside I've found is that you can feel more little bumps while driving on crappy roads but with the bump stops further apart taking a bigger bump is smoother feeling.

Just crank the torsion bars and take her for a 10 - 15 mile test run to see if you like it. If you like it keep it and get the truck aligned. If not, put 'em back to your original measurements.

 

I guess that is a real advantage, being able to change back. I think ill give an inch and a half a shot
