I have a 01 ext cab 1500 that I have had since new. 160k now and I have recently started driving it as my daily again. So far I have put a new battery, alt, fuelpump,cranks sensor, transfer case and I just finished putting the rear end back together replacing a axle seal.
I think I've got the girl running decent again and I want to play a bit now.
The front end seemed to sag a bit over time, so I just cranked the torsion keys down to the stop and it looks much better.
I'm interested in opinions of what kits/method I should go with to lift it more.
I dont want to go crazy as I dont need tires soon so im sticking with the 265/R75's I have for now but I will bump it up when these are done.
Ive seen the "lift" torsion keys and it is most likely due shocks anyway....

 

What size tire will you go to in the future? That will play a role as well. A rough country full levelin kit sounds like a good start. Keys and shocks, after that I'd do a 1.5" body lift from zone offroad. I have don't both of these and it's a perfect stance for a daily driver.

 

I'm thinking 33/12.50's. Maybe 35's...one question, since I've cranked my stock torsion keys down, will the leveling kit raise it further or just relax the torsion bars to stock tension?
Thanks for the input

 

New keys will put more tension on the bars. That's the only way to lift the front. 33x12.5s is a good idea, perfect tire/height combo
