ive been hearing so much different things about keys, are they really worth it or are they just a waste of time and money?

well if u want your truck to sit level then just turn up the keys its a 18 mm head go under your truck and follow the torsion bar to a cross member and youll see the bolt... spray and let soak with pb blaster... next. if u want ur truck to b "lifted" 2 inches or soo then buy the keys i ordered mine thru suspensionconnection.com or go ebay either way if u pay less than 110 shiopped ur good.

The torsion keys allow for more cranking of the torsion bars, resulting in more preload on the front end. Everything will wear down A LOT FASTER. Just crank the stock keys, you save money and it will give you the look you want.
