which is better??? body lift kit or the keys,and blocks in rear?

[riviera rider]

i got my 3" performance accs. lift kit but now i seen the keys with the blocks in the rear that will give me the 3" lift also

should i just put on the body lift kit or should i get the keys/blocks?????

which is better and why?

BL.

keys dont do shit on an OBS, the originals are indexed enough to get all the lift possible.

blocks in the rear arent' the problem. the problem is that when you try to lift your torsion bars up 3 inches, you're going to strain your whole front end. your CV angles will be maxxed out so they could snap, along with horrible angles for the pitman arm, idler arm, tie rod ends, etc.

also you're not going to be able to crank to level 3 inches on an OBS. Trust me.

Just do the 3 inch body lift and if it's not enough for you, then throw in a 1 inch block and crank the bars up a small bit.

what he said. no way you're gonna get 3 inches by doing a torsion crank...and if you did it would surely break something and the ride would suck. just do the body lift.

im doin a 3"body lift and maybe 2" blocks in the back.depends on how high i can get the bars to crank without alot of stress on my front end.if to much then im doin a 1" block!! you dont want to break tie rods rollin at 70 mph!!!

Blackedouthoe couldn't have said it better.

ya im not cranking my keys much at all, maybe to give me another 1/2" or so i got to level out the front end anyway because one side is sitting higher about 1/2"
