Question suspension-question with lifting

Hey, if anyone could answer my question it would be appreciated. I have a 2008 f150 fx4 5.4l. I just recently put in a leveling kit 3" front and 2.5" rear. Im really happy with the setup but i would like an inch or two more in the front. Is there anyway to do this with the leveling kit. I have heard talk bout messing with torsion bars and tightening and that,,,would this work to get another inch?

I answered your PM, but for others on the board benefit. Get yourself a set of Bilstein 5100 shocks and crank them up for that little extra lift you're looking for.

I think you misread his post. He already has a leveling kit so adding Bilstiens would be suicide for his front end.

If you want more lift you will need a full out lift kit with a drop down front crossmember.
