i would think that the t100 bars are longer.. There are TONS of aftermarket thicker torsion bars out there

OME and downey just to name two

Finish school, goto college get an edumacatoin, and get a higher paying job. Then you have bigger budget to buy bigger mods for your machine! J/k Like said before, look around for some used aftermarket torsion bars, people have them listed in here all the time after they do SAS's. I have seen them go for $75 to $150, that is about as cheap as it gets! Just my Smart-ARSE .02

Why do you want thicker Tbars? Won't add any lift, just make it ride rougher... Only reason would be if you have a heavy bumper/winch, which would certainly blow your budget...

If you want to lift it all you need to do is tighten the adjusting bolts. if you want more weight carying capacity on the front go with thicker t-bars. Heavier duty t-bars don't life the truck, its the adjusting bolt that does

get a softer torsion bar and crank it, like the sway away bars, and if you want buy bj spacers, they are only 120 shipped. cheaper and add lift.
