    im guessing you have after market keys? take them out and crank the bars all the way so it doesn't mess up anymore cv's. basically your only option is a 3 inch body

    you dont even need a body lift with 33's. but if you get one, get the 3" performance accessories lift. comes with everything you need.

    if you go with a 2" lift it doesnt have the bumper relocating brackets and looks like crap.

    take out your keys and I'll buy them from you, you won't need a body lift but if you get one, get the 3" because the 2" doesn't have bumper relocation brackets

    if your goin thru the trouble of puttin a body lift on go ahead with the 3" ..... the 2" will not be worth it ..... also u can run 33s all day stock , thats what i got ..... hell u can fit 35s with stock keys

    go with a 3" and scrap the torsion keys. if your guna drop them back down to stock height you dont need them. i have my stock keys cranked up about 1.5-2" for the past year or so and i havent had any problems (yet)
