Default Ford Tbar keys on GM?

I remember seeing some people doing this a long time ago on fullsizechevy... but has anyone done the ford tbar keys on a gm?
Anyone have a partnumber on what I'd need for my CC 1500?
Thanks
Brando

i just put ford keys in a 05 z71 i dont know the part number but all you have to do is go to a ford dealer and tell them you need torsion bar keys for a 97-03 f-150 then is really easy to put them in.

you get roughly two inchs of lift. depending on which torsion bars the truck has in it. i've installed 20 and 25 sets i've seen between an inch and a half to three and a quarter. enough to fit 33s may 34s on a factory wheel
