torsion bars??
I got a superlift 5" lift with a 3" body lift. (Tweaked it a little to get a 9" lift. My torsion bar screws have about 1 1/2 to go before bottoming out (maybe 2") How many inches per turn would I get?

I just cranked mine on Friday. Most guys will say 1/4"- 1/2" per one full turn. Mine only went up 1/4". I think it will vary from truck to truck.

OK. I have never done this before. Do I just turn the bolt, or do I jack the truck then turn them?

Jack the truck up and then turn them. If you dont then you might strip the bolts.
