Hello all. Need help, I currently have a 2001 supercrew 4x4. I would like to do a few additional things to my truck. I have a 3 inch bodylift and stock torsion bars cranked. I would like to add 7700 torsion bars, torsion keys and rear blocks. Here's my questions

1 Do the 7700 bars fit?
2 Do the 7700 bars lift any extra
3 Do the torsion keys give any extra lift?


Thanks all!

 

Torsion bar adjustment keys have to be the worst product ever made. They allow you to put way too much preload on your torsion bars which causes premature wear and destroyes your ride quality.
You can use 7700 lb torsion bars, but they won't lift your truck. It's a good mod if you have a heavy winch, grillguard or aftermarket bumper. Otherwise I'd skip them.

 

the rear springs might get you some lift though

 

.

 

you can buy a rear airbag kit to get some lift in the rear.



i have a post in the classifieds check it out man

 

No extra lift from the 7700 bars. They're just stiffer so the front end won't sag (as much) from a heavy front bumper, snowplow, etc.

X2 on skipping the keys.

 

yeah, i swapped the 7700 series bars under my truck. no additional lift gained. don't do the torsion keys, period. spend the $700 on a used suspension lift, and save yourself the hassle of constantly replacing cv boots from the horrid angles of cranking the bars up all the way w/ aftermarket keys.

 

Sounds like the jury is in. Thanks for the advise all!!
