I assume you have your t bars cranked? Did you space them up or leave them in the stock location?

was your ride pretty stiff before? Mine fill stiff enough that shocks might not help. Its all you can do to push on the bumper and move it.

My torsion bars are cranked up showing 3/8" of threads. They have been cranked up for sometime. The new ride is excellent. How far is your bars turned?

Don't really remeber. Just high enough to clear 285 on 17's wich comes out the same as you.

You can easily push down on the front bumper and it will move. I dunno about before the bilsteins. You are also running 285/70/r17. I am running 285/75/r16. I dunno what the height difference is on these.

My advise is to get the bilsteins, you won't be disappointed. john2dps has the best price that I have found on them. If your bars are turned up all the way, you might want to back them off some. You stated earlier, that you have to have them turned up this high due to clearance, so i'm not sure if you can:confused: . Mine has plenty of clearance.:confused: Check out my sig. and look at my truck photo.
