when i level my truck do i need any special tools? http://4x4.fatbobsgarage.com/gmc-tor...px?Thread=True i seen this tool and it said it is required to do the leveling. will a normal c clamp work?

I rented a 7 ton 2 arm puller from oriellys. Worked like a champ. I wouldn't trust a normal C clamp. They won't hold up to the pressure IMO

i have always just pictured a c-clamp slipping off

Email or PM me if you are looking to buy one of these tools , I have a extra GM one.

NOOOO do not use the c clamp, we tried to use one on my friends and we had a pretty big c clamp and bent and was probably close to breaking if we wouldnot have taken it off. I went and got my ball joint kit and used that, it is basically the same thing and worked just fine or do like country did and rent a thing from o reillys, but I am telling you run a huge risk if you use a c clamp.

C-clamps can't take that kind of pressure. A puller or the actual tool is only thing I'd use

honestly, is it really worth buying new keys anyway or should i just crank up my stock ones to level it out. im trying to fit 285/75/16 bfs. truck has 245s on it now. if i crank the stock ones up will i be able to clear the bigger tires? i plan on getting it all aligened afterwards.
