lifting suburban

[ddeennis]

well i was just wondering what folks out there have experianced what i am doing.

my 93 suburban has a saggy butt on it and i am installing 2" blocks tomorrow to help raise the rear back up.

and i know my front is leaning too on the driver side.

so i leveled the front out.

i have all ready turned the torsion bar on the driver side enough to lift the front 5/8" to equal the pass side.

i made a 1/2 turn on the pass side because i was just alittle higher on the driver side and that 1/2 turn really didnt change nothing but i left it. ( there was no difference in the tape measure )

figure my weight will make my driver side drop some.

but anyway i bought 2" blocks to put in the back tomorrow

i might turn up the front maybe 1/2" more if the blocks looks like there might be to much rake but as it sits now there is about 1 1/4" - 1 1/2" sag in the rear.

so it should have about 1/2" rake i figure when the blocks are in there tomorrow.

but i was thinking the 1/2" more in the front might level it out but im just thinking what might be the side effects for raising the front with torsion bars.

what is the limit on the torsion bars before wheel alignment problems?

i have been reading other post and some folks said they have raised there fronts up to 2" and have no wheel alignment problems

and i am thinking for the most part i put mine back to "stock" and maybe i might go 1/2" more.

my suspension is just tired im thinking i will be o.k.

thoughts are good to read, so let me have it .

well i got the 2" blocks in and i cranked the front up some. it looks good. i might play with the rake on the front some before i take to have the front realigned.

gee i wonder how much more tire i could get under there?

i bought new 265/75-16 mud tires (32") tall

maybe some 285/ 75- 16 might fit nice under there.....mmmmmmmm
