Ahhh, good ‘ol torsion bars. Brings me back to my teens when I lifted my ‘yota. Cranked up the keys then re-arched the rear springs by adding some leafs so I could stuff 33x12.50 M/T’s under there. Can’t believe I never lifted my 95 Silverado. Still got it though. Waiting to run the tread off my stock 2014 Silverado tires so I can put the RC level/lift sitting in my garage on with some new shoes. The Duramax is looking good. Keep at it. I’ve enjoyed watching you’re builds come along. Thanks for sharing.

Looks good bud
LOOKS BAD ASS!!!
Great video bro love the content,
I was a little worried when you started on it in your garage that you were building a "boat in the basement," and wouldn't clear the door anymore backing out. Obviously it worked, and it looks good!! :-)
Haha I was thinking the same thing buddy!
Dustin T after install how were the CV angles?
I used a bottle jack, as a torsion bar release. Just make sure it’s stable
Fuck man ! I just did my control arms backwards ! Did it ever make a difference ?
Old video might be long shot, but what if I installed my lift and forgot to mark up the torsion bar on control arm???
Your video is shit
Easily can tell someone cranked the stock keys a little. Stock HD's ride about 38" in front at fender.
Would this work on a 1500
Are those 33?
How’s the ride quality? I had this same lift out on and I dread going over bumps or rougher roads due to how rough the ride is.
It’s just okay. Turned all the way down is the best. I like the looks of it higher, but since this truck sees 90%+ dirt road I leave it on the lowest the torsion bars can go.
Your truck looked lifted already bro ? I mean it looks good thou
Bro I got the same rims I hate them
Why have a video that doesn't show what you did ?
Nice build what size is the rims and tires any offset thanks
Silverado 04 1500
How much Costa to lift 6 inchs
Thanks for the video bro.. subbed and 👍
In regards to upper control arm, there are 2 ways to determine driver and passenger side. They do put notches under ball joint caps. If toward frame then that is driver side, RC to front, also there is a flat spot on under side of one are those always go toward rear.
Unfortunately in this video, he installed wrong causing less clearance to bump stop.
never put washer on metal look at your original at 12:34 for future reference
I'm thinking about this kit for mine since I need to rebuild the entire front end. How did the CV angles end up? Thanks
It wouldn't hurt to get the spray in bed liner too 😎👍 nice truck bro 😎👍 thank you for video 😁🤙
Really good video on lifts. Smooth, calming presentation. I would have had to edit all my cussing. 😂😂😂
Shout out to your Dad!
Woohoo you got a total of 2 inches in the back and a whole inch in the front from a 3” lift kit You say it looks better but that little you would not even notice
Is this the same way you would inatall one on a 2001 gmc sierra 1500 2wd also would it fit correctly?
Nice build. That lift kit made a world of a difference. Good job 👍🏽
Great video let me know how the zone lift is I have a procomp 6' lift on my 04 Silverado 1500
how does it ride?
@@6.7louu66 My 2004 Chevy Silverado rides really good with the 6" Procomp lift
So I have a Chevy Silverado 1500 crew cab that I’m about to put a 3’lift kit on. I plan on changing a lot underneath,but I was curious as to do u think that 37-13.50-22 ‘ tires are good for a 3rd lift or should I go a little higher like to 4’ .
there's no way you can put that with anything less than 6.5 lift
Great looking truck 👍! That's a good stance, sits perfect. Much respect to you.
What part of Arkansas are you I'm around west Memphis
You can get Supreme suspensions version which has shock extenders and I've had no problems
Just installed same kit in my 06 GMC Sierra 2500HD. Driver side was no issue, passenger side was froze up at the key and also lower control arm. After beating both ends to death and liberally spraying with blaster the bar was not budging. So I took the torsion bar tool and a 1/2 inch 11/16 socket and put the tool across the top of the cross member. It will lock in to the round hole where the torsion bar comes into the key on the front side of the cross member. I put the socket on the post which pushes your keys up . After getting it lined up as best as I could i started cranking on it and was able to push the torsion bar out. I watched your video about using a bottle jack and that gave me the idea of using the torsion bar tool. My smallest bottle jack is 20 ton so that was not an option.
Hi Johnny Bravo....Can I ask how the CV angles looked compared to stock and how it rode afterward? I don't mind a firm ride...but, that is subjective I guess!:) Thanks...
@@Zack7228 CV angles not far off from original. Truck rides well, pretty impressed with their shocks as I had bilsteins on before I put the RC kit in. Overall I can't complain, kit was well worth the 699.00 I paid for it.
@@johnnybravo1022I know it's been awhile but I'm just curious if you had any problems getting enough threads to install the nut on top of the front shocks. Looked like this guy couldn't get the top bushing on so just used the washer and nut. I am having a hell of a time trying to compress the first bushing enough to install second bushing, washer, and nut. Used my jack under lower arm, no luck. Any advice? Thanks
@@benzoil0453 Hey whats up. Don't remember having any issue putting the shocks in. The only problem I had was getting the torsion bars to break free because they were rusted in both front and back. Your best bet would be to call rough country support and see what they have to say. Everything went in pretty smooth after I got the torsion bars to come loose and got the keys out. Still got the truck and haven't had any issues with tire wear or rough ride. When you get it completed make sure you get an alignment done. Call their tech support they should be able to help you out.
@@johnnybravo1022 I've actually had the lift for over a year. 4 wheel parts installed it and the top bushings I'm having trouble with installing wore out on the first set. Rough country sent me a new pair because they don't sell replacement bushings. Called them yesterday and they told me I just have to find a way to compress the bushings enough to get top nut on but I just can't get it. I cracked lower control arm bolts to hopefully get a little more play when jacking it up but still not enough, though I could loosen them more. Not sure how that would effect torsion bars or not, as they do run through the lower arm. I just don't know much about these trucks honestly. I'm better with working on my toyotas lol. Frustrating cause I'm so close to getting the nut on, but not quite enough threads showing. Tried getting a c clamp on it but too awkward an angle. Anyways, thanks for the reply and I'll just keep after it.
Painted the A frame/ hood latch brace flat black so it disappears behind the grill. Loox tight! About to get the 3" look after a level and I'm standn 'round doin the potty dance with excitment.
Illegal block in the back 22:50 10 yard penalty still 1st down.
Would this lift work on a '04 silverado 1500 z71 offroad?
so wait a minute, u measured 40" at front in the beginning, and 41" after installing a 3" lift...lol
If the stock torsion keys were already cranked, you would really only see 1-1.5" of lift with a 3" key. The aftermarket key just allows more lift than stock.
you need to invest in a rachet to remove the torsion key😁
Nice truck!! What offset are your wheels?
U put the front shock on wrong, it goes rubber bushing, rubber bushing, then the metal washer on top.. never have metal to metal in shocks, saposta be a rubber bushing on each side of the top shock mount
did you ever make a video of the ingenious way you guys removed the rusted keys?
Yes sir! It is on my channel
@@DustinT link please, can't find it...
For the top of the front shocks, the washers and rubber spacers should be nut, washer, top side rubber spacer, frame bracket, bottom side rubber spacer, washer.
Where's the 3 inches of lift? That rear block isn't 3inches. I have decided to go with the Zone lift.
The 2500 has lots of lift options the 1500 not so much
Awesome 👏🏼
Dude the washer is on the bottom than rubber than threw the frame than rubber than washer than nut, that must make all kinds of noise with the metal to metal contact.
Yep.. installed the shocks wrong has the washers on wrong for sure hope he changes them
I was hear to see the finally product and was skipping around the video. When i saw how he did the shocks i laughed and went to the end 🤦♂️
How does it ride now with this kit?
What size tires?
Called Rough Country for my 3 inch lift, For the upper control arm you can determine the driver / passenger side by taking the ball joint cover off, there will be a notch. If the notch points to the frame it is the driver side control arm, if the notch points to the wheel, it is the passenger side. The casted "RC" logo ends up towards the front of the truck on both sides if it's installed correctly.
Is the ride quality any better then stock? I have 20's with 305's. My keys are cranked up a bit, and it rides like absolute crap. I even have bilsteins 5100's and didnt help at all.
Are the ball joints offset to correct caster?
What size tires are on that
What size tire and rim?
I was looking at this lift for my 2500hd. How is the ride, and how much are the cv axles angled? Thanks
Really appreciate the video man
Nice job Dustin, looks beefier. I like the basic how-to video. You have knowledge and skills enough to do this install in your driveway... I don’t.
well now you do have the knowledge, this video explains it all and for the torsion key part, there’s millions of videos
