Oh my red truck has a 3" body lift. On my black truck in my profile gallery I leveled it up front to 24" and never had to touch the rear. The tailgate on it is almost level with my red one.

Hah I always use my phone so it doesn't let me see profile gallery's. I logged onto the laptop tho and your black truck looks great. That's the one with 305's on 16x10's right?

Ok I have been looking all over on here and I know it says not to go over 24 and 1/4 inches from center of hub to bottom of fender but when adjusting them up should I jack it up or not. Also has anyone tried turning up rusty ones, I live in Michigan and yea my truck looks nice but the under side isn't the greatest. if I do turn them up I will soak them in some penetrating oil so they don't break, can I just get clarification as to if the truck should be lifted to adjust them or not.

No need to jack the truck up as that'll mess with the measurement. I'd just keep soaking the bolts in some PB blaster for a couple days, then try to turn them if they're really rusty.

That's a good looking clean truck,, I have 35" m/t,,16". 10. With 3" bl. Never turned keys. Doesn't rub. Just my 2 cents.

03FX4604, Thank you my friend, I also learned something very helpful, I am running 3"BL, with 35" M/T's. I don't rub. but I am going to try and crank my torsion bars just to see what I can get out of them, very helpful info. I will do just as you said!!
