i just finished up getting my blazeland lift put on my truck. all in all im pretty happy with it, it took a lot longer than i anticipated to get on, but a lot of that was due to the wrong parts that the auto parts store gave me.

 

LETS SEE SOME PICS DUDE!!!!!!!!!!

Glad to hear of another happy customer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

ill get some up tomorrow, it was dark when i got done. i cant wait till i can drive it, i have to wait to get the allignment and my new axels to get in

 

dude...even I AM excited for you LOL

 

ya i was hoping id get to drive it tomorrow, but i guess not.

 

not the best pic but all i could do right now

 

i got the allignment done yesterday. its really fun to drive the truck now with all the body roll now. now i just need to put the suspension to the test

 

we need better pictures!!!

 

just a little flex

 

anouther pic

 

Looks awesome! But do you have pics that are any bigger?

 

So is the body roll worse now? Is it because of the lack of a front sway bar or are you using factory torsion bars and that causes it?

 

Iv heard talk of using a T100 sway bar for the added width. What are you running for tires?

 

i tried but it said the pictures are to large.

 

yes the body roll is a lot worse, if i swurve at speed i can hit bump stops on the front, but i love that about it. it makes it really fun to drive. i believe it is because i am running no sway bar and stock torsion bars, but those are next on the list to buy when i save up the money.

 

im sure that would work, but it is a lot of fun without one, for tires i have 33x12.50x15 open country all terrains

 

load your pictures to photobucket and then leave the links here for full siz pics. Hrmm camano island huh? You ever drive out the the seattle kirkland area? I'd love to see the kit installed before i pull the trigger.

 

Stiffer torsion bars should reduce body roll, and shouldnt really affect the flex much.

 

Springs - torsion bars, coil, etc. - are not great for changing / controlling roll. Vertical loads yes, but don't plan on a big roll reduction from heavy duty torsion bars. The best conventional way to have a noticeable reduction in roll is with an anti-sway bar.

I had been running stock t-bars without the front anti-sway bar for almost a year. I added 24mm Rancho t-bars about two months ago to aid in the add'l front weight of my bumper and winch. There was absolutely no reduction in roll from the assometer stand point.

I would not go buying heavy duty t-bars if you goal is to reduce roll. If you want to change the ride aspects, they work great if its well matched to your front weight.

 

For one, his A-Arms are about 3" longer than yours are.. So.. from a mechanical aspect the leverage applied is significantly greater.
I won't calculate it out (because i don't really care), but when you add 3" of leverage to something designed to only handle 3" less of leverage, then you increase the amounty of torque applied to the stock torsion bars..

In this case, the amount of torque applied increases his body roll and makes his suspension soft. So, stiffer torsion bars would fix this.
