1.) Torsion keys are junk, nobody should be suggesting them to members on this forum... Crank the factory keys up...

2.) This truck is a 2wd and doesn't have torsion bars...

3.) OP, do a search, there are many ways to lift your truck

body lift
Coil spacer
Lift/leveling coils
Spindle lift
Full cross member drop
Etc...

Find which one suits your needs

I have tested the keys and have done research and compiled measurements from friends and members here and found the aftermarket keys do nothing that stock keys can't do... Besides break your truck

They are paperweights unless you have a plow or a heavy 200lb winch bumper
