ANyone know the stock the height before the t bar crank? I haven;t found that listed anywhere.
I'm just going off of the 3 H3's that I have done, they seem to start out around 22 1/4 - 22 1/2". The rear of the truck is at 24", make sure that youmeasure from the center of the hub to the bottom of the fender.

Has anybody ever used or heard of the leveling torsion key lift that skyjacker makes for the H3?

You don't need a key lift, all the key does is reposition your tbar starting adjustment value. The stock should give you more lift than you will ever need.

Hello all.....i have put on the cognito/blistien front leveling shocks on and the ride is far better than what i was attaining from the factory shocks....if someone is looking at leveling out the front end...i would suggest putting the shocks first then doing a level from the torsion....what i found out is after you have done a torsion bar twist in increase the level of the front end and have not put on the shocks prior , you will have to to another series of torsion bar adjustments after you put the new shocks on....why?.....i havnt a clue but the i did the torsion first...leveled out the ride....noticed a decrease in shock travel then installed new shocks...my ride was cockeyed and had to re do the torsion twist as i like to call it.
the H3 FRONT LEVELING SHOCKS by Cognito are excellent....i highly recommend them but do the shocks first then the torsion bar

All the best..

The correct front Bilstein shock number if doing a Torsion lift is F4-BE5-C153-HO. The proper rear Bilstein part number is F4-B46-1698-HO for stock height rear ends. Hope this helps.

I just leveled my truck with the skyjacker leveling kit and the mechanicrecomended new shocks because the oem ones were extended due to the kit. Everytime I hit a bump the truck bounces. What shock's should I buy and will they actualy help?
