well i got 7 turns outa it... and only an inch and a half. went from 37 1/4 to 38 3/4 on passenger and 37 1/2 to 39 on drivers side. i could go more on the drivers i think but i wanted it even. would keys do anything? i know yall say not to get em or would new bars let me ge the 2 inches or so i want up front? im goinng t put a 2 inch block in the back as well

sounds like the bars are worn out. You can replace them or get keys. Keys is a bandaid but less cost. You are young, money is an issue I would imagine, keys is a decent option.

I cranked mine about half way to get a little over 1.5"

yea im 16 money is... im going to get 2inch rear block first. if its pretty level ill leave it alone. if not i guess get some keys for it. im maxed now so yea then i guess bars are worn and new 3/4 bars are kinda spendy. could i get some from jy? or are the tahoes diff since i have the weird crossmember only the 4drs have.

you could get junk yard bars....but I would fear they could be worn also. do the keys is my advice. you just need to crank those worn bars farther to get more height and the keys will do that for you at a lot less cost.
