The Thing with the torsion bar crank is that I've already done it to level out the front end. It sits even right now with about 5 turns on each bolt. One side is only about a half inch from being all the way in and the other still has a inch. I'm afraid if I put shackles onto it I won't be able to get the truck to sit level.

Tis a Body Lift!

Here is the almost finished result. Need to fab up some bumper brackets and new brackets for the brush guard. Still Rubs a tiny bit on the passenger fender but nothing a saw saw can't take care of.



Let me know what you think.
