RE: LIFT
You can get 2 inches out of the torsion bars and that's a free option.

RE: LIFT
You can go with more than 2 inches on the torsion bars but after 2 inches you will begin running into problems ie. alignment issues and cv shafts that are too stressed.
One other bit of advice those torsion keys are a waste of money just use a socket wrench...

RE: LIFT
Pretty much they're just trying to cash in because it sounds ridiculous to get lift for free huh.
Deerang look at the eBay listing up above. That is a torsion key.
