Not sure what it means but I know it's not right....when truck was on lift last it was noticed my torsion bar keys are more than 90% cranked in on both? However the truck is stock on stock tires n rims, and it sits completely level. I was told it should be 2" higher being cranked in and it seems rougher ride feel like a 2500HD would be? Is it something to worry about or should be replaced?

i am surprised it is level i cranked the bolts on my 2006 and it only lifted it about an inch still wasnt level but i wouldnt worry about it as long as it has had a good alignment

Why was your truck on the lift?  Were they looking at your suspension for a particular issue?  If your truck was in for an oil change and the guy doing the work happened to notice this, I would get a second opinion, without telling the second shop that you were told it needs torsion bars.  Tell them it rides rough. 

 

Typically there is a nose down attitude of - 1.5 to - 2.0 inches front to back.

It was on the lift having a snow plow frame put on the front. Alignment was done and seemed ok but i did notice with this truck it goes through tires fast, about a year.
