Default Torsion bars on a 2009 Z71...

Can you still just crank th torsion bars on a 2009 Z71 or do you just have to go with a lift? If so how exactly do you do it?

im pretty sure a 09 z has coils up front and you have to run a spacer to level the truck.... im not up to speed on the 4x4 thing though!

If it's a 2500 yes you can crank them if it's a 1500 you need spacers.

Then maybe I should just buy like a 6 inch lift or something. Might as well right?
