iwell about a yeay ago i bought some reindexed torsion keys from truckinsuspension that were supposed to level my truck out, and they did to some extent, i paid like 70$ for em with shipping. my question is im a tech for ford and i can get the ford keys really cheap so should i leave the keys i have now on there or get the ford keys? will there be any difference? also my drivers side is almost an inch lower than my passengers side, i think due to my sagging torsion bar. because i still have some blot left on my passengers side torsion key adjuster but my drivers side is maxed and is still sagging?

Not sure if the TS keys have the same indexing as the Ford keys. But the Ford keys cost about $50 for 2 (I assume you can get them cheaper). Your truck is 7 years old...the bars themselves could be worn. I'd pick up a set of the Ford keys and hold them up under the truck to see if the clocking is the same compared to the TS ones. If not, then the Ford ones could give you more lift. If they're the same or similiar, then new TBs are required. I'd fgo with 3/4 ton bars at that point.

its the 99-03 ford keys that level our trucks, the keys are made by the same company for both ford and gm. The ford keys in a gm will raise the front 2" I think we sell em for less than 40 bucks
