Front Leveling Kit For 2005 Gmc Extended Cab Z71

[wrinkleman265]

i am wanting to get a leveling kit for my 2005 gmc 1500 z71. which one is the best and are the tortion keys the only way to do it? how hard are they to install? does anybody know where i can find diagrams or pictures of installation? im confused as crap trying to figure this thing out.

If you can live with an inch to inch and a half then you don't need to buy anything just crank the torsion bars a couple of turns and then get an alignment. If you want 2"+ then you need the Ford torsion keys, installation and alignment.

hey you said the ford tortion keys. is that right? how much lift can they give me? i want more than 2 inches if i can get it. i can block the rear end to finish leveling it off if i have too. will i need new shocks?

Don't quote me but I think the Ford keys can give 2-2.5". I have stock keys cranked to 1.5" on my 99 since new and it's been problem free.
