ok then, get the 3" keys. That is a better idea than cranking to get the height. yes you will need an alignment when ever you mess with the torsion bars, or the keys. A little advice from me to you would be to do some research on the key lift and see what it really does and better yet how it works. Check a few other forums out like gmt400.com and gmfullsize.com. Or you could save yourself the time and listen to this simple statement...cranking your stock keys is the exact same thing and adding new keys. both twist the torsion bar to gain lift. The only way to gain lift without cranking is a true differential drop type lift so until you are ready to spend some money on that either crank the stockers or don't. But don't get keys thinking it will not tear up teh front end of your truck

Dude save your money up and do it the right way. Spending more to do it right will more than likely save you a lot down the road.

Ok. What's the cheapest suspension lift out there?

Rough Country. It's about $1000 right now...lifting aint cheap. Keep in mind that is only the kit. Still need to install it or pay to get it done....exhaust mod, gears, alignment and so on

Add almost $1000 in labor for the install of the lift, as well. I'm still working on the gears part....

there she is t-bar crank with 35s on stock rims with no rubbing

Those look like 285/75/16 to me...

I just can't see it plausable to run 35's and not rub at all on a factory suspension. Might want to go double check your tire size son...

The backspacing affects more than most people realize, plus, idk if his story is entirely true, if he is on stock rims, it would be crazy to fit 12.5" wide tires on 7" rims
