ok... so I dont have thousands or even hundreds of dollars to spend on a lift kit... i just think my h3 would look nicer if it was a tad bit taller. I keep seeing these "leveling kits" on ebay for around $100 and was wondering if anyone had bought or used one of these? what do yall think??? i like what i see in the ebay pics but I know better than to trust my money on that alone. thanks

 

Feel free and spend around $100 for the leveling kit, it will work just fine. This will raise the front end about 2"-3". OR you can spend $0, and crank the torsion bars. There's a great "How To" somewhere on here that shows you exactly what to do step by step with pictures (i'll put the link below). Turning the t-bars will do the exact same thing as buying new torsion keys. It will raise your front end 2"-3". The main difference is you can keep your money

True however you will have to spend some money because after you crank the T-bars you will need a front-end alignment!

 

You'll have to spend the same amount for an alignment using the leveling kit too. Some people (myself included) have a lifetime alignment at Firestone so it was still free...do yourself a favor and spend the money for the lifetime alignment.

 

Thanks everyone, i love this forum!!

 

Even with the lift kit or t bar crank supposedly you should change out the front shocks too because it may be bouncier but in the 10k miles I have put on my rig after the t bar crank I haven't notice any difference yet

 

The reason to change the front shocks is NOT because its bouncier after the crank ... its because if you offroad your rig, the rebound and extension limits of the stock shock are now 2-3 inches off (since you raised the front end this much).
