Has anyone actually seen or tried this concept for the front torsion Bars?

It seems like a neat, clean system but you can buy fixed torsion bars keys that will give you the lift for less than 1/2 the price.

Keep in mind that adjusting torsion bars from stock height will stiffen your ride a bit. I have the lifted keys in my H2 to bring the lift up from 6.5 (my lift kits height) to 8 inches. It does ride stiffer but not a lot.

It sounds like a new key and is overpriced. Use the Find feature and type in Torsion Bars. I just did and found a bunch of stuff.

Here is one on a two inch lift:

Adjustment screws:

The reason I bring those two up is you will find there MAY be hazards to that kind of "lift". Then again, maybe not.

BTW, I believe I read in one of those threads that a 2500 series key will do the job.

You can buy a set of 2500 keys for about $50 bucks, and it'll take about 1 hour(including jacking time) to install them.
