    so this is how my truck currently sits. tires are 305/65/18 and they only rub when i go up angled drive ways. and i hate it.

    i already have my t bars cranked.

    suspension lift if not in the budget right now but i DO want...

    dont really want a body lift, unless i have no choice and get desperate...

    i was thinking 2'' aal's for the rear...

    and main question...if my t bars are already cranked, can i add a leveling kit still? or is that not possible...

    ive never messed with torsion bar but I know the make torsion keys to lift it more. i dont see why you couldnt do a leveling kit too but it may just be under to much stress if you do. Sorry not much help here.

    yes the aftermarket keys put the front suspension in alot of stress , ball joints , tie rods , axles etc. I would advise you to just stay away from them .... if i was you id pick up a 3" body lift and rock it out :peace:

    Where are you rubbing? You shouldn't be with that small of a tire. But if you are do some slight trimming with a utility knife. Most everyone has to.

    you could just go with like a cheap small 3'' lift and that should fix your problem too.

    And man those rims are awsome! What type are they?

    You can get lift keys like mentioned but it will stress your frontend out more. I'd go with the 3" BL
