Alright I want to make sure I am thinking correctly before I buy. If I get a 2-3" Cognito leveling kit and the torsion bar keys that means I can net 4-5" of lift in the front right?

If so is anyone running this set up and how do you like it? Of course pics would also be great!!

Thanks All,
Rich

NO. 2" give or take is all you'll get. Mine is about 2" with stock keys and shock extensions, and 2" rear blocks to keep the big rake. It works just fine, see my garage for before/after/install pics.

Also do I need the torsion bars keys to net the 4-5"?

Thanks Again All,

Jason Duramax,

You only have the torsion bars cranked though, no leveling kit right?

The keys will give you the 2-3". The cognito ucas only help the ride.(by moving the bump stop pad, and correcting the upper ball joint angle) They will not give you extra lift on top of the keys

I would highly advise on getting the uca's and some better and longer shocks too though. The ride sucks with just the keys IMO

Read this, it should help you see how it works:

Right, stock keys, turned 9, maybe 10 turns. After plowing this winter, I'll probably need keys due to bar sag, I don't have much adjustment left now.

Awsome you guys gave me all I wanted to know and more. Looks like I am going to buy a lift kit. I want to net 4" with 33"-34" tires.

Thanks Again All!!

Cognito 4-6 for ya'. Pics in my garage and at http://www.norcaltruck.com/cognito-4-6.html

This is the same as horsepower calculation, if you buy 5 aftermarket items that should give you 300 extra horse then dyno it at you gained 100. Same thing with suspension if you but a cognito kit that gives you 2-3 inches and a 3" ebay torsion key kit so i should be at 5 or 6 inches right. Only in a perfect world
