Has anyone found or using a suspension lift smaller than 4" using rear air?

Re: Lift Question

I saw some new torsion bars available that "claim" to allow you to raise the front up and not increase firmness.

Re: Lift Question

From what I am hearing the best route to go with a more traditional lift, 4" rancho or something similar to keep everything working properly without any premature wear.

For those of you who have done this are there any regrets, and what was your over height increase after tires?

What size wheels and tires are you running?

Thanks for all the info. I am trying to decide if the is a good choice.

You can do it, but there are trade-offs.

Most of the "kits" are just + keys and they will increase ride firmness.

Re: Lift Question

Phil, I cranked mine only 4 turns (.8") and the ride feels much stiffer. At this small amount, am I at a high risk for these premature component failures?

I have 35 tires that are 13.5" wide.

With this setup, would the Cognito system be a good idea?

I am considering dropping the TBs 1.5 turns and adding the Cognito stuff....
