Leveling Kit - Silverado 1500

[Sunny Z]

Anyone ever install one of these before? I've had it sitting in my garage for a month but never installed it because I couldn't track down a torsion bar key tool, and i like the way my face is configured, so i didn't use a c clamp.

More importantly, would someone be willing to lend me a hand in doing this (garage / shop)? I'm not allowed to do any repair or maintenance work in my apt complex.

I'll buy the beer?

You could do it at my place, although you wouldn't be able to get it into the garage. Access to an air compressor and tools is all I guess I can offer.

I need to do the same thing to my 1500HD too. Maybe I'll buy the kit and we could do them the same time.

Sounds good. I bought the kit from Rough Country, with all four shocks, keys, and blocks for like 200. Pretty good deal IMO.

I hear mixed reviews about the kits that change the keys, but I have several friends who have done it, and they all have been fine.

Question is; where can we get a torsion bar key tool?

Any part stores have one you can rent?

Did some looking around, looks like car quest has one. Not sure if its rent or buy, but if i have to buy it, you can be sure they'll be getting that bitch back.

From Semis to tractors, I haven't met a suspension that beat me. To bad your in DM.

Not sure if the 2500hd and 1500 are the same. but I have a 2500hd that is leveled by cranking the stock keys. Ran it that way for awhile then bought longer Bilstein shocks for all corners and it rides awhole lot better. Also purchased this, but yet to get it all installed.

Let me know if you need a place to do it still. I doubt I'll be doing mine. I can't seem to find anything decently priced to level mine out.
