well you could crank the torsion bars and add 3" blocks on the rear axle.. or add a 3" body lift ..if u crank the torsion bars you have to get a alignment and the ride will stiffen up

is it 4wd or 2wd? because if it's two wheel drive it's not torsion keys, its coil spring spacers I think. and that combined with a 3 inch body lift will sit you up around 4-5 I believe
