Front - 34.5" Rear - 35" To have it completely level and still have a good ride do 7.5 turns on the drivers side & 8.5 turns on the passenger side Front - 35" Rear - 35" If you want to MAX out your Tbars it will be 9 turns on the drivers side & 10 on your passenger side. **WARNING** It Will Ride Like $hit Front - 35.5" Rear - 35" No Picture **All Measurements Were Done After The Suspension Settles**

Did you have any problems with how much the bottoms of your tires came in or the camber of them?

You might be able to borrow jack stands from a auto parts store. I did it with a torque wrench and all you have to do is put money down then you get it back when you take the jack stands back

Re: Torsion Bar Lift For 2010 - 2011 Info
So why crank more on one side than the other? I've done seven on both and the driver side is still the lower than the passenger

Re: Torsion Bar Lift For 2010 - 2011 Info
Finally got around to having my 2011 lifted 1" - front now 34" and back still at 34 1/2". Ford dealer turned driver side 5 times and passenger side 5 1/2 times. Just that small lift gives the truck a better look and it seems to drive about the same. I just had new tires put on, so I got the alignment done too. I guess getting old is making me cheaper - got Goodyear Wrangler Trailmark tires a Walmart special. Dave
dealer charged $25 for the lift and $59 for the alignment.

Re: Torsion Bar Lift For 2010 - 2011 Info
Can I do this with the factory keys on a 2010 fx4? Yes in Canada we have 2010 fx4's. I just want to lift it 2" max to level out with the back

Re: Torsion Bar Lift For 2010 - 2011 Info
I have only cranked my t bars on 2007 level 2. Has anyone changed the sway bar links at all? As in added longer ones?

Those that have cranked the T bars have any ever changed the length of the sway bar links from factory ones?
