exact specs for leveling

[Rred]

Alright, I have the trailduty leveling kit that consists of the replacement blistein shocks and the 1/2" extended bumpstops. I'm still in Iraq, and I'm going to be here for another minute. So I'm wanting my mother to drop my truck off at a local mechanic and have him do my laundry list of small work. This way, when I go home on leave, I can just have to jump in and turn the key. I'm all for doing my own work. I love knowing the job is done right, but I'll be short on time while I'm home on leave. So what I'm asking is;

What are the exact specs for cranking the torsion bars with this leveling kit?
How much do I need to crank them, how many turns? Do I need to measure the stock height and then remeasure afterwards?

I need to be able to give my shop some specs for what I'm wanting. I greatly appreciate the help. I can't wait to get home to my truck. I'm over here just daydreaming about the little things I want done. Damn, I can't wait.

You might want to wait til you have the 35's. Then have everything done at the same time(leveling kit and tires put on). Then they can do the alignment and stuff. Well that's what the dealer who did mine told me. Could be b.s. but made sense to me. Not sure how much the shop is gonna charge you but i got my old tires taken off the stock wheels, the new tires put on the stock wheels, got the leveling kit put on, torsion cranked(not sure how much), alignment.....approx $440.

just my thoughts....
