What do yall think of this lift for my tahoe?

[smokeonthewater]

my experience w IFS chevy's is that you don't need the keys... the stock keys when cranked all the way up will put the suspension high enough that you start hitting the upper bump stops on every little bump in the road and get an uncomfortable ride... Generally if you crank the bolts in till you have about 1/2" sticking out it is as high as it can get and maintain a comfy ride without buying a "real" kit with new control arms.

You can experiment easily for free.. just crawl under and crank em up and test drive

I was going to try that first, just heard bad things about cranking them too much and didnt know how mush it would lift it. I need the rear up anyways from the heavy tool box in the rear...may try and crank the front and just put block in the rear.

Buying lift keys are a waste of money. The stock keys will do the same thing when cranked up. The problem with these budget lifts is you will eat upper ball joints and upper control arm bushings for breakfast, lunch, AND dinner. unless your willing to put on a set of cognito upper control arms, then only slightly crank the torsion bars up. If you have the right wheels then most don't need to crank the bars much at all to run 285/75/16's. I have only seen a few that needed cranking at all. if this is a daily driver, then I HIGHLY recommend going with an actual lift kit because with cranked torsion bars your CV's are going to wear fairly quickly.

WHS

I generally crank em up just enough to raise the front of the truck an inch or so

Then you MIGHT consider air bags on the rear.... adjustable is NICE!
