Help to lift my truck

Sorry to all of you, I do not know if I am writing in the right section, but I have my 2000 Toyota diesel model (now I have) with front torsion bar (I hope you understand me, torsion bar is full), and I can not lift my truck system more. There any way I can lift my truck more? some kit or something?

You can always do a body lift kit. as long as they make one for that vehicle. shouldnt cost more than a couple hundred for 2 or 3 inches.

There is a limit to how tall you can lift the IFS with torsion bars. At some point, the operating angle of your front CV axles will be too steep and cause binding. If you're already maxed out on the t-bar adjustment you may have to do a suspension bracket lift or a body lift. Body lift should be easily fabricated if you cannot import the parts. All these lift types are explained here on YT if you search for them. Good luck.

I recently bought my lift kit from 4 Wheel Online. How high are you planning to go?

I understand that the flywheel system no more than 3 inches know if so?

Motowstew has a pretty comprehensive guide on lifting your truck. Might want to take a look there for a place to start. Good luck!
