torsion bars
#3
T100s have torsion bars. To crank them up, lube the heck out of the threaded bolt, hold the nut above the half-moon part with a crescent wrench and turn the head of the bolt with a socket wrench. Be careful if your truck is at all rusty. When I dealt with my lift, my t-bars were unwilling to move and as I turned the bolt the bolt broke sending the t-bar, bolt, and mount up through the floor and into the interior of my cab. Lube, Lube, Lube, then wait and patiently try to turn the adjusting bolt head.

well i went out and did this.. but it didnt help at all??? whats going on? would longer shocks help? i have a bullbar and a winch on the front so i know this contributes to the problem

it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. you might as well just get a suspension lift. longer shocks wouldnt help anything because they would compress and would limit your travel. i wouldnt mess with your torsion bars at all.

i used a air lift that lifts the entire truck when i did this.. they are just plain worn out.. im going to order some ball joint spacers next week and see if this helps.. i already got a body lift, just waiting on my truck to get out the shop, i wrecked it a week ago, and probably around thanksgivin when i get my bonus from work im plannin on ordering some rims and tires and a fabtech 4inch suspension lift..
