Installed this on a 2019 2500 6.0 last night. Took a little longer than expected, and the wrench tip definitely helped. I fought with the front DIF bolts for a while... but all in all it went well and I got about 2” of lift with space for the upper control arms. 4 hrs total time. Thumbs up!

Just crank the factory torsion bars up it does the same thing. Been doing it for 20 years on customers trucks that we install snow plows on with no complaints yet.

Absolutely, anything beyond maxing the stock bolts binds the A arm's and CV axles, no reason the stock bolts won't level the truck, nothing wrong with lowering the front diff and adding shock spacers though. If someone wants to install different keys they need aftermarket A arms.

The "sloppy" key is not sloppy once preloaded which is 100% of the time...

You have 14 different combinations for raising and lowering the vehicle but your instructions only give about 5 examples

So this kit requires that I bend wrenches and also have a hydraulic press?

You can only lift as far as the a arm bump stop lets you, adjusting stockers will get you there.

@@SMiller5488 Yeah, they should let folks know this as some think aftermarket keys are magical. Im about 1/4 inch from my bump stops with stock keys. Truck sits maybe an inch higher outback.

I’m not sure after all of that ? That it’s worth it??? Yes I’m pretty sure you must have the front tires realigned!

If you are not going to replace upper control arms or lower the front diff then just max the stock bolts. Yes I know this kit lowers front diff yet without addressing upper control arms you will still hit frame stops resulting in harsh ride.

My question would, does the truck still ride well? I know my cousins 2018 Chevy 2500 has a leveling kit...it rides like absolute crap. Now it's not y'alls kit but I have a Ram 2500 with a carli and obviously a solid front axle and I've always been told leveling an IFS suspension typically they ride terrible.

No anytime you utilize “cranking” of the Tbar you will stiffen your ride regardless of what this guy is saying . Only a true diff drop Lift kit will retain close to factory ride .

It doesn’t maintain factory ride your putting more torsion on the the bars making ride stiffer I have it on my 2500 easy to install looks good but will ride stiffer

Adjusting bars does NOT change the preload. Rough ride come from upper control arms contacting the frame stops as well as the upper ball joint binding. Both fixed by installing aftermarket upper control arms.

Key allingment has nothing to do with ride as you are not altering preload, the torsion bar only has one factory setting regardless of you turning it.

Millions of dollars in cost reduction at the plant because customer don't complain. Car manufacturers has no need to expand or put up a powder coating line that add more cost to the overhead. If car manufacturers painted all the metal parts, consumers will pay more which they will complain too. Not many people even look under a car or even if they did they won't even know what they are staring at. Ask around how many time people look under their cars in a year. Most people don't. Car manufacturers actually is keeping the cost down for the consumers.
